Overview
A girl struggles to find hope with her sisters, her best friend, and a new crush, as the country navigates a pandemic & protests against police brutality, in this timely coming-of-age novel perfect for fans of Darius the Great is Not Okay.
I just want to enjoy being alive. Can’t that be enough?
Tia doesn’t know how much more she can take. Things have been weird with her best friend Drew, her older sister Mel is in a coma after a mental health crisis, a global pandemic has stolen her senior year, and racial tension is high across the country, following the killing of another unarmed Black man by a police officer.
So when Tia’s oldest sister Alexis invites her to stay at her place, Tia jumps at the chance to get out of the house and away from her daily life, if only for a little while. But getting to know the cute girl she meets while walking her sister’s pandemic puppy is not enough to distract her from the weight of her world. Will Mel finally wake up? Is Alexis also on the edge of breaking? Will her friendship with Drew survive the summer? Is protest and quarantine all Tia can look forward to?
With so much unrest in the world and in her life, Tia will have to figure out how to keep from losing hope or losing her mind.
