Description
Everyone has something, someone, somewhere else that they’d rather be. For four high school seniors, their goals of perfection are just as different as the paths they take to get there.
Cara’s parents’ unrealistic expectations have already sent her twin brother Conner spiraling toward suicide. For her, perfect means rejecting their ideals to take a chance on a new kind of love. Kendra covets the perfect face and body—no matter what surgeries and drugs she needs to get there. To score his perfect home run—on the field and off—Sean will sacrifice more than he can ever win back. And Andre realizes that to follow his heart and achieve his perfect performance, he’ll be living a life his ancestors would never understand.
A riveting and startling companion to the bestselling Impulse, Ellen Hopkins’s Perfect exposes the harsh truths about what it takes to grow up and grow into our own skins, our own selves.

Dieser Teil gehört zu dem Buch "Impulse" von Ellen Hopkins. Die Handlungen in "Perfect" und "Impulse" spielen etwa zeitgleich und einer der Hauptcharaktere aus "Impulse" ist verflochten mit zwei Charakteren aus "Perfect". Ellen Hopkins beschreibt wieder 4 Sichtweisen von Jugendlichen die aus unterschiedlichen Gründen mit sich selbst kämpfen. Die zentrale Frage ist, wie weit man bereits ist für das Streben nach Perfektion zu gehen. Wie viel von sich selbst und seinen Träumen man opfern würde.
