(4) YA Sixteen-year-old Kai is devastated by her older sister's unexpected suicide. When Kai turns to drugs to numb the pain, her parents send her to a summer grief camp; there she finds solace in talking to teens who have experienced similar losses. While some readers may find comfort in Kai's story, this journey through grief is generic and resolves too easily to have wide appeal.
