Overview

High school junior Brinkley Harper is beautiful, wealthy, admired, and powerful--until the day she wakes up in the body of a classmate she wouldn’t be caught dead hanging out with.
 
Goth girl Miranda is everything Brinkley isn’t: she won't leave the house in anything but black, her family life is in tatters, she’s practically invisible at school, and she’s hiding a dark secret. As Brinkley experiences Miranda’s life from the inside out, she’s forced to consider the world from a very different point-of-view. But this won’t be Brinkley's last “jump,” and each time she lives a day in another classmate’s body, Brinkley not only begins to feel empathy for others, she also begins to glimpse the fears, vulnerabilities, and disappointments behind her own perfect façade. By experiencing the world as somebody else, Brinkley may finally learn to understand herself.
 
A contemporary fantasy featuring a gutsy heroine and fast-paced action, Jump explores the transformation of a girl who never knew she needed one.

Read an Excerpt

     When Brinkley awoke, Cocoa wasn't there. Perhaps I've overslept, she thought, and Tallulah has already come and let him out. Brinkley noticed that the surface under her head was hard and cold, and the sound rousing her from sleep wasn't her cell alarm.  It was...giggling?
     She opened one eye and saw a face she'd seen before but couldn't place. It was some guy...some nobody...from school.  What was he doing in her house?  Immediately, she sat up, ready to demand that he get out of her room.  But when she looked around, she wasn't in her room.
     She was in a classroom at Story.
     "Miranda, did you get your beauty sleep?" the teacher asked. The class giggled again. Brinkley stared, mouth open. Why was the teacher looking at her?
