Jason Karpeles: Blind Spot, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Everyone thinks they know Iris Mercer. They know the white cane, the guide dog, the dry humor, and the campus routes she moves through without hesitation. They know she is blind. They do not know what happened Friday night. At eighteen, Iris has finally built a life that belongs to her. College means a room of her own, classes that challenge her, a best friend who can turn coffee into an all-night adventure, and Jon, whose careful presence is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. Then something impossible changes the rules. Iris tells no one. She needs time before doctors, parents, friends, and university offices turn the unknown into a plan for her future. But one secret creates another. A glance becomes evidence. A kindness begins to look performed. An anonymous message makes Iris question the person she trusts most. The more Iris tries to discover what people reveal when they believe she cannot know, the more she risks turning the people she loves into a test they never agreed to take. With Spot beside her, friendship splintering, and first love caught between honesty and fear, Iris must decide how long privacy can survive secrecy. Before she can choose when to tell the truth, one dangerous night threatens to bring everything to light. Sharp, funny, suspenseful, and deeply heartfelt, Blind Spot is a contemporary coming-of-age story about disability, independence, friendship, family, trust, and the difference between observing someone and truly seeing them. Perfect for readers who enjoy character-driven young adult fiction, college settings, complicated friendships, slow-burn romance, emotional mysteries, and stories with unforgettable animal companions. Everyone has a blind spot.
