Just over twenty-four hours are left until an asteroid strikes North America, and for Emerson and everyone else who didn't leave, the world will end. But Emerson's world already ended when she ran away from home. Since then, she has lived on the streets, relying on her wits and on her friend Vince to help her find places to sleep and food to eat.
The city's quieter now that most people are gone, and no one seems to know what to do as the end approaches. But then Emerson and Vince meet Carl, who tells them he has been granting people's wishes -- and gives them his wallet full of money.
Suddenly, this last day seems full of possibility. Emerson and Vince can grant a lot of wishes in one last day -- maybe even their own.

So your going to tell me that these two kids go to this bridge to kill themselves before this asteroid hits the earth and kills everyone. And this guy is there and says that he will try to grant them one wish. And what do they wish for?
!!!!MONEY!!!!
REALLY?!?!?!?!? I mean I get the fact that both these kids have been living on the street. But really why money. Do you think if the world was coming to an end in less than 24 hours that ANYONE is going to give a rats butt about money??? Um NO!! Money isn't going to make one bit of difference.
As soon as that happened I'm sorry but I had to put this one down before I tossed it across the room. I mean really?
I then skipped to the ending and well now I'm really glad I didnt finish it.
