YOU CAN SPOT THE GIRLS WHO HAVE IT EASY. AND THEN THERE THERE IS ME.
Charlotte Davis is in pieces. At seventeen she's already lost more than most people do in a lifetime. But she's learned how to forget. The broken glass washes away the sorrow until there is nothing but calm. You don't have to think about your father and the river. Your best friend who is gone forever. Or your mother, who has nothing left to give you.
A deeply moving portrait of a girl in a world that owes her nothing, yet has taken so much, and her long journey back from the edge.
