From award-winning author Sara Zarr comes a gorgeously crafted and deeply personal story about a young girl, her alcoholic mother, and the hope that ties them together.
Krya has always felt like sheās a bitĀ too much. Too tall. Too loud. Too earnest. But sheās okay with that, because sheās got her mom.Ā Ever since Mom got sober about five years ago, she and Kyra have always been there for each otherāsomething Kyra is thankful for every week when she attends her group meetings with other kids of alcoholics. When Mom is managing her cleaning business and Kyra is taking care of things at home, maybe, she thinks, sheās notĀ too much. Maybe, sheāsĀ just enough.
Then seventh grade starts, and everything Kyra used to be able to count on feels unsure.Ā Kyraās best friend, Lu, is hanging out with eighth graders, and Mom is unusually distant. When Mom starts missing work, sleeping in, and forgetting things, Kyra doesnāt dare say ārelapse." But soon not saying that word means not saying anything at allāto Lu or to her support group.Ā And when Kyra suspects that her worst fears might be real, she starts to question whether beingĀ just enoughĀ is not enough at all.
