How to Be Brave

(4) YA After her mother dies, Georgia Askeridis carries out her mother's wish for her to be brave and completes items on her "Do Everything Be Brave List"; the tasks (including cutting class, smoking pot, and asking out the boy she likes) push her out of her comfort zone. Georgia's worthy exploration of grief and self-discovery is marred by a familiar plot and flat characters.
