The entire story takes place over a single 24 hour period on the streets of New York. Two young people - science-loving, factual, Jamaican, desperate Natasha, and good student, poet, 2nd son, Korean, reluctant Daniel - meet and share one day walking, waiting, eating, singing and riding the New York subway. It is destiny or a random event in time? I appreciated how, as individuals are encountered by the main characters, they get to have a chapter to themselves to flesh out how they came to that moment in time. Highly recommended for teen readers.
