This story is a modern-day "Sleeping Beauty" tale, set against the tides of high school teen angst. Written in the first-person, it revolves around your typical teenage girl, who got in trouble for doing something bad, and as punishment must serve community service. Which, to her dismay, turns out to be reading to a strange boy in a coma. Eventually, she discovers his secret journal, and reads that to him instead. As his story unfolds, it becomes apparent that there is more to his life than everyone thought. A refreshing look at the world around us.
