Critics Review

“This book offers positive representation that will resonate with many young adult readers, especially fans of Meredith Russo and Kacen Callender.” — Booklist“A moving novel about grief and the possibility of hope after loss. Bulla creates an open and inclusive narrative for the characters to share their experiences as ­LGBTQIA+ teens. ­This story is touching, heartbreaking, and poignant. A must for readers who enjoy complex ­emotional ­journeys.” — School Library Journal“The book has moments of rich emotion.” — Kirkus Reviews”Laden with audience-engaging punk rock and emo music references and realistically depicting the casual access to drugs and alcohol in high school, this book explores the complex relationship between grief and love while tackling difficult subjects like addiction, substance abuse, abusive relationships, and suicide.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
