Independent Novel

I have just started a new book called Kiss Me Tomorrow by Susan Shreve. The main character is Blister, she is starting her first day of junior high and the setting so far is at home she is standing by the door with her face pressed against the window waiting to be picked up, it was about 8:00 and her Jonah was already late to pick her up. An example of the setting is "checking her reflection in the mirror over the stained blue couch in the tidy family room." Shreve has received many prestigious awards including the John Simon Guggenheim award in Fiction. Shreve has written both adult and children’s fiction, publishing over twelve titles in both categories. I choose this book because i got it 2 years ago and never had an interest in reading it until i really took a look at what it was about and i though i would be able to relate to it. A question i have for this is book is does Blister's best friend Jonah have feelings for her?
