is inspired by the sudden and unexpected death of author Donna Mebane's own daughter. Donna breathes vitality and warmth into Emma's character, and you'll find yourself rooting for Emma as she learns to navigate her new world with courage, humor, and an indomitable spirit.
is a daring coming-of-age book -- the first in a new series -- in which an ordinary teenager must come to terms with her own mortality, the loss of all she once knew, and an other-worldly set of rules. The results are dark and uplifting, heart-breaking and humorous.
"With its honesty, beauty, and hopeful outlook,
... will resonate with anyone who has ever lost a close friend or family member."
