Imagine you opened a diary and found your own thoughts written there on the pages. What would you do? Close it in embarrassment? Read each page avidly, excited that someone finally understands? Anya Allen, London Fox, and Meschell Anderson are surprised by how complicated life has become now that they are in high school. Anya's the daughter of an overprotective preacher, London has no clue who her father is, and Meschell is constantly disturbed by all of the noise in her neighborhood-including her parents, who argue a lot. Despite their different circumstances and the drama that surrounds each one of them, the three soon become inseparable companions. After all, they know what it's like to outgrow their childhood friends and they know how much it hurts too. Join Anya, London, and Meschell on a journey to find deeper meaning in life, as they explore how their faith in Jesus can ease the pain of the transition they are experiencing from girlhood into maturity. One Chance to Live Young: The First Colorfully Candid Diary is the charming exploration of the drama and tension teenagers experience through the diaries of three vivacious teenage girls, growing up in urban Las Vegas."
