(3) YA Elena watches her beloved older sister Dora struggle with a deep depression from which Elena, for once, cannot save her. Can Elena best help Dora by keeping her secrets, or by exposing them? Focusing on the sisters' tight relationship and the family's fractured dynamic, this powerful novel presents a raw, intimate look at fraught topics including institutionalization and antidepressants for teens.
