The synopsis pulled me in, but in the end, I just didn't feel like the novel delivered. I definitely wouldn't classify it as a "psychological thriller".
Unputdownable and eye-opening story of how opioid addiction of a teen boy affects a family of 5, from the POV of his younger sister. It‘s heartbreaking holding onto hope when that‘s all you CAN do. Complex dynamics, loss, grief, and adolescence.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ I barely even know who Tendler‘s famous ex-husband is, and that‘s because I had to google him, so that held zero bearing on my opinion. Celeb gossip isn‘t my strong point. This is tough because everyone has a story to tell, and memoir lends itself to freedom of expression and self indulgence. The discussions around mental health were good, relatable. But some of this went off the rails for me. I didn‘t love it, nor the title / cover combo.
Have always been a bit hesitant to read The Bell Jar. Any tips/experiences, folks?
Ft. Pretty handmade bookmark from my friend to help with it❤️
Sometimes the hardest battles are the ones we fight within ourselves.
You could use the book as a starting point for conversations about grief. Encourage students to share their thoughts or experiences (if comfortable) and discuss healthy ways to cope with loss. This can help normalize the topic and promote emotional literacy.
“You'd Be Home Now“ is a heartfelt and poignant novel that delves into the complexities of family dynamics, loss, and the struggle for identity. The story follows a teenager grappling with the aftermath of a loved one‘s death and the impact it has on her relationships and sense of self.
