YAMostly Miserable Life of April Sinclair series.
On the brink of April's fifteenth birthday, her beloved grandmother is hospitalized, and her extended family mobilizes to care for Gaga to the end. As April navigates her teenage relationships, platonic and romantic, Gaga's death shapes April's feelings toward others and also helps her express difficult emotions. The eighth series entry is moving and mournful but not without hope.
