Synopsis

Evie's older sister Cilla is gone. Their parents sent her away to a strict boarding school after she got pregnant during her junior year of high school-because getting pregnant is not something the Morgan girls are supposed to do. They're supposed to go to church and eat fish on Fridays. They're supposed to be good little Catholics. But Evie can't believe her parents could be that cruel, and she doesn't understand why Cilla isn't responding to her almost daily letters-letters about the school play she didn't get cast in, the distance that's growing between her best friends, and the possibility that she's developing some decidedly un-Catholic feelings about the new girl in her class. So when the other kids at school find out about her crush, Evie sets out to find her sister, convinced that Cilla is the only one who can tell her if she should follow her heart and risk getting kicked out of her family, too, or if should start questioning her family and her faith...

This gorgeous book will wreck you! But in a good way? I found Evie so relatable (and sweet). It's going to be life-changing for young LGB+ kids that have never seen themselves in a book before. The ending had me all teary, and I loved seeing a story that didn't come to a tidy little conclusion. This......more

I LOVED this book. I'd been eager for it since the deal announcement, and wow -- it blew me away. Evie's connection to her sister is so beautifully, authentically rendered, and I loved the epistolary format.

Goodreads review by Pam on December 18, 2017

I have been sitting on this review for a while because I am not entirely sure that my words will do the book justice. There are also a lot of feelings involved in this darling book and I will attempt to keep it together as I navigate those. As a disclaimer, Jen Petro-Roy is a dear, dear friend and I......more
