Two girls discover their father's secrets after his tragic death. The novel-in-verse took a while to grow on me, but the hard, honest concepts won me over. In the author's note: Families are messy. Most parents don't live up to their children's hero worship. I like reading YA that talks about the hard stuff.

Definitely go with the audio on this one--spoken word poetry is meant to be heard, and the author reads one of the characters.
