Rent The Ice Queen

Synopsis

The nameless narrator of Alice Hoffman's winsome novel makes a thoughtless wish when she is eight years old. It immediately comes true, and her life is wrecked. Grown up into an emotionally dead librarian, she thinks constantly about death until another miraculous event takes place: she is struck by lightning, survives, and is changed, utterly, once more. Now she is able to reach out to other people, particularly to other survivors of lightning strikes--one of whom is another chilly recluse, Lazarus Jones, with whom the narrator promptly falls in love.
