Emily has a secret and she is starting at a new boarding school in the middle of her junior year, Amherst School for Girls.  She meets her roomate KT and they become friends.  This school once had Emily Dickinson as a student and her and Emily not only share a name, birthdate but they both write poetry.  Poetry is how she deals with all that has happened in her life.  She spends lots of time in the "lieberry".
