Antiwar demonstrations. Protest music. Flower children. 1968 is an exciting year to be eighteen years old. For an introverted girl like Sarah Sinnott, it is also a challenging, even frightening year. Sarah begins college with a determination to meet new people and change her life. She soon connects with Nathan Rogers, an outgoing gay activist, and together they seek to make the world a better place. When Sarah falls for Seth Jackson, the handsome editor of the student newspaper, she fears her only involvement with him will be in her dreams. Along the way, she has to come to terms with the possibility that her brother will be drafted to fight in Vietnam, and she must deal with some unfinished business from high school in the form of a boy she had a crush on and a snide cheerleader. As the result of a war protest gone wrong, Sarah finds herself in a jail cell, and has to make some difficult decisions about how she wants to live her life.
