(3) YA Placed in foster care after the death of her brother and legal guardian, Sasha struggles to cope. Her growing connection to a long-lost young cousin, who is also dealing with trauma, helps Sasha process her own, and poetry becomes an outlet for her turmoil. An empathetic narrative (with one part in verse) of layered characters, complex relationships, and hard-won healing.
