This touches on a sensitive topic and does so in an approachable manner. Silver (the title character) becomes real, full of depth, and a sensitive human being as she falls in with the local high school girls. As she penetrates deeper into their circle, she discovers a secret one of her new friends holds, and now she must share it, too.
Lovely story of how a teenager deals with an ethical decision in the midst of a potential loss of friendship. Highly, highly recommended for young teenagers, probably wouldn't be a bad idea to let an older pre-teen read this one, too.
