For the most part, Hannah's life is just how she wants it. She has two supportive parents, she's popular at school, and she's been killing it at gymnastics. But when her cousin Cal moves in with her family, everything changes. Cal tells half-truths and tall tales, pranks Hannah constantly, and seems to be the reason her parents are fighting more and more. Nothing is how it used to be. She knows that Cal went through a lot after his mom died and she is trying to be patient, but most days Hannah just wishes Cal never moved in.
For his part, Cal is trying his hardest to fit in, but not everyone is as appreciative of his unique sense of humor and storytelling gifts as he is. Humor and stories might be his defense mechanism, but if Cal doesn't let his walls down soon, he might push away the very people who are trying their best to love him.
Told in verse from the alternating perspectives of Hannah and Cal, this is a story of two cousins who are more alike than they realize and the family they both want to save.

BASED ON THE AUTHOR'S EXPERIENCE: This novel is inspired by Ellen's grandson who has struggled with the effects of PTSD throughout his adolescence. Just as she did with her bestselling hit, Crank, Ellen draws on personal experience to provide realistic detail and insight to this unique family dynamic, making the story even more moving for readers.
SCHOOL AND LIBRARY DARLING: Ellen is beloved by teachers, librarians, and other gatekeepers and we expect this to be a natural for award consideration.
MOVING TALE OF FAMILY AND FRIENDSHIP: This exploration of friendship and what family really means is fresh, authentic, and powerfully affecting.
ENDEARING MAIN CHARACTERS: Hannah and Cal might be completely different from one another but they both will capture your heart with their unique and compelling voices, engendering a lot of love and empathy for these characters.
MORE TO COME: We will include a teaser for Ellen's follow-up middle grade What About Will?, which goes on sale in September.
