Twelve-year-old Fern feels invisible in her family, where grumpy eighteen-year-old Sarah is working at the family restaurant, fourteen-year-old Holden is struggling with school bullies and his emerging homosexuality, and adorable, three-year-old Charlie is always the center of attention, and when tragedy strikes, the fragile bond holding the family together is stretched almost to the breaking point.

I wasn't sure if I'd like this–I'd heard a lot of good things, but I wasn't really sure what it was about? Like, if anything actually happened? Well yes, things happen, and they will make you cry, and it was very good.
I confess I only read this because my Cosmic Twin thinks JK walks water, and I have to admit I have also enjoyed everything I have read by her so far. Well. Is “enjoyed” the right word? It's more like, I got sucked into the story, had my heart handed to me in a sundae bowl, I watched it get eaten, and then shoved back in my chest. Holy hell. I thought this was going to be a sweet middle grade romance about two kids who are “different”. I was not expecting what happened at all. So, to say this novel will stick with you is an understatement.
Congrats to Knowles for having talent and for not being afraid to drag readers through the emotional roller coaster. This has Tween Book Club all over it.
