Astrid Jones spends hours lying on the backyard picnic table watching airplanes fly overhead. She doesn't know the passengers inside, but they're the only people who won't judge her when she asks them her most personal questions... like what it means that she's falling in love with a girl. Astrid can't share the truth with anyone else in her life - her pushy mother, uninterested father, and over-interested friends wouldn't understand. But little does Astrid know just how much even the tiniest connection with the people at thirty thousand feet will affect their lives - and her own - for the better.
