The title was misleading. I thought it was going to be a mystery story where the main character thinks someone is dead, who later turns out to be alive. But it was a drama instead of a mystery. Otherwise, it was well written and I liked it.

This is such a great meditation on loss and on family, but it’s also funny, I promise. So well crafted, so many little moments I’ll remember for a long time.

What happens when you can’t help falling in love with the boy who (accidentally) killed your sister? This was probably one of the most interesting takes on grief I’ve ever read. Espach’s exploration of the relationship between sisters was also compelling. A friend said once she finished this book, she immediately wished she could read it again for the first time. I can see why. That ending, though… do they (I won’t say who) end up together??? I know I already used the word interesting but man, this was interesting. A coming-of-age story that I’m surprised hasn’t been talked about more.
