Vacation reading continues
Courtney Summers is a Canadian YA writer who pulls no punches. Her characters are flawed, tough and vulnerable in equal measure, and wholly believable. In this novel, Eddie is trying to cope with the suicide of her once famous father. When she thinks he's left her clues about the reasons he killed himself, it cracks her grief wide open. Another excellent book by this author. #covid19readathon
Honestly...I'm shocked. The title makes sense now, and I am blown away by the author's authentic depiction of grief. Stunned by Summers once again 😭 what a doozy. #24B4Monday
I think that this is the book where Courtney Summers finally becomes a great writer. This book brings me back to Sadie and the tragedy of that book - the feelings of emptiness are so tangible and it hits where it hurts. She gets grief SO well.
You always know when your relationship is beginning to deteriorate with your best friend 😓
I don't know why this has me cracking up so much 😂😂 maybe it's because I totally feel like Eddie about my own mom
Sometimes I feel hunted by my grief. It circles me, stalks me. It's always in my periphery. Sometimes I can fake it out. Sometimes I make myself go so still, it can't sense that I'm there anymore and it goes away.
