You’re not as messed up as you think.At least, that’s what her friend Zack always says. Sophia isn’t so sure. She is sure, though, that swing dancing helps as she struggles through depression in her final year at Queen’s University.Then she breaks her ankle. Her defence is gone.Zack seems to believe people can change, even the bullies who almost broke him, and Sophia has to hope he’s right as she spirals toward despair. But any challenge can be a blessing as well as a curse. In this modern coming-of-age tale, against the backdrop of bullying, mental illness and even darker threats, Swing Out of the Blue is a story of vulnerability, friendship, courage and personal growth, and of recognizing, above all, that we are not alone.
