Description
Laurel Summers can't recall the last words she spoke to her mother and siblings, but one image remains: her mother's mangled car on the freeway. This accident shattered Laurel's world, leaving behind only memories of life before - when her biggest problem was a kiss with her best friend Hanna. As Laurel navigates her grief, she struggles to cope with her father's depression and his subsequent departure. Alone, she tries to make sense of her pain, seeking help from her grandparents, friends, and strangers. Her journey is marked by the items on her List of Things Not to Talk About, as she learns to trust herself again and keep her heart open to love. Laurel's story is one of loss, healing, and self-discovery - a poignant exploration of what it means to be okay with not being okay.
