Izzy wakes up in the hospital, groggy and confused. Finally she remembers what happened: she had gone to a party with her date Marco, and when the time came to leave he was drunk, but still attempted to drive her home. After they crashed into a tree, both of Izzy's legs are broken, and one of them has to be amputated. At first Izzy avoids even thinking about her leg. She's a nice girl, and she doesn't want to cause anyone any trouble or make them feel uncomfortable around her. Too bad her friends barely talk to her. Then Rosamunde, a girl from Latin Club, shows up. Izzy never would have hung out with Rosamunde before... but there is something about Rosamunde's direct way of confronting Izzy's new handicap that helps her through it. I was excited to read this due to my love for the Tillerman books by Cynthia Voigt (A Solitary Blue is one of my favorite books). This wasn't quite as good as those, I thought, mostly because Izzy is just too damn nice. I doubt many teen readers will be able to identify with her unless they've actually lost a leg themselves. She starts out as the nice, perfect, popular girl, and even after the accident and everyone is being weird around her, she never calls them on it or tells them that it makes her feel like crap. Many of the details were also very old-fashioned, the way it was unusual for Rosamunde to want to be a lawyer and Izzy's desire to meet a husband (perhaps at college), and be a housewife. I also found lacking the parts where Izzy believes she will never get a husband now - there is no hopeful resolution there except one small incident. I think back in its time, Izzy, Willy-Nilly would have been a great heartwarming young adult novel about a girl struggling to deal with a disability, but in the world of YA publishing today I'm not sure it holds up. Shark Girl, for example, was a much more interesting and modern take on the same idea. There are a couple of minor swears, so this is not an entirely clean read, but it's very close.
