The Ethan I Was Before by Ali Standish
4.0

A tragedy took his best friend Kasey away from him. A tragedy Ethan blamed on himself. How do you move on when you are blaming yourself for the loss of a loved one? How does your family move on when they are trying to keep you from causing yourself more harm? Ethan's family moves from Boston to Georgia in hopes for a better present and future; however, family is difficult and good friends are hard to come by and it is even harder to let go of them. This was a well written story with excellent, complex characters.
