One of my favorite series: Avon True Romances for Teens. Many notable romance authors wrote YA stories and across different time periods.

pickBooks about death are never elegant. This one was.
Books can never get the spectrum of emotion down correctly on the page. This one did.
Books are often one dimensional, from one perspective. Neither was the case here.
Raw with emotion from every person left reeling after the accidental shooting death of Miah. The year after follows Miah witnessing the awe encompassing grief of his girlfriend, parents, family & friends. The healing...
Ms Bev was the guest speaker at the Hearts Through History RWA online chapter Annual General Meeting. She spoke to use about her research process.
I even asked her about her writing of these books for teens. She said it was difficult to keep it a sweet/clean romance!
pick“Even if you turn your back on the world you left, you're still pulled toward it, you're still turning around--always--to look behind you. To make sure everyone's okay.”
“And remember.”
I knew I had to read this after finishing If You Come Softly. I thought this follow-up/companion book was okay. There‘s sadness & also hope, & how an incident can connect unexpected people in beautiful ways.
pickSequel to If You Come Softly. Just as beautiful, if not more, as the first one. Woodson has the perfect touch, tone, and lyrical nuances to continue the story of Ellie, Jeremiah, their parents, and Jeremiah‘s grieving friends.

I haven't posted yet about my #20in4 plans because yesterday was super busy. But, the next three (actually 9) days are MINE! Here is my short stack. I will also finish the audio book I'm listening to YOU KNOW ME WELL by Nina LaCour and David Levithan.
pick7000 less people on Goodreads have read this sequel than the first in the series, If You Come Softly. They are missing out. The first was a tearjerker but this is even more so. Woodson captures grief in the year after a great loss like I didn‘t know a young adult novel could.
