Overview

From the critically

acclaimed author of the ALA Notable and

Charlotte Huck Honor Book Forever, or a Long, Long Time

comes a poignant coming-of-age novel about the complicated parts of growing

up, finding your voice, and claiming your space. Perfect for fans of Rebecca

Stead, Laurel Snyder, or Ali

Benjamin!

Lydia hasn't felt comfortable in her own skin since the boys

at her school started commenting on the way she looks in her uniform. Her

cousin and friends think she should be flattered, but the boys—and sometimes

her mom's boyfriend, Jeremy—make Lydia uncomfortable and confused. Even more

confusing is when Jeremy hovers too close and hugs a little too long.

Then her mom surprises her by buying a dilapidated house in

their neighborhood. Lydia hopes to find a little bit of magic in their new home.

But just like the adults in her life, and God, and her friends, the magic Lydia

deeply believes in eventually loses its power to keep her safe.

And as seventh

grade begins, Lydia wonders: Is there a secret to figuring out how to be a girl

in the world?
