Juniper Lemon's Happiness Index

(2) YA Since her sister's death, Juniper Lemon has kept a daily "happiness index"--a practice inspired by Camilla's optimism. When Juniper loses index card #65, her frenzied search through school Dumpsters inspires an art project involving found objects, leading to connections with lonely classmates. With sweet romance, light mystery, high-school social shenanigans, and memorable characters, Israel's debut is conventional YA realism in the most appealing sense.
