Things People Ought to Know About Me: After my brother died, I didn’t cry. Thirteen-year-old Lucy Bains is smarter than your average 7th grader, but there is a lot she doesn’t understand: why her brother, a 17-year-old violin virtuoso, is depressed and has lost his passion for performing, why her mother is more interested in her brother’s malaise than in Lucy’s skill as a mime artist, and why her archaeologist father—who left them years ago and now lives in Peru—suddenly wants to come visit. And most baffling of all, when did her best friend Charles become someone she might like to...
Things People Ought to Know About Me: After my brother died, I didn’t cry. Thirteen-year-old Lucy Bains is smarter than your average 7th grader, but there is a lot she doesn’t understand: why her brother, a 17-year-old violin virtuoso, is depressed and has lost his passion for performing, why her mother is more interested in her brother’s malaise than in Lucy’s skill as a mime artist, and why her archaeologist father—who left them years ago and now lives in Peru—suddenly wants to come visit. And most baffling of all, when did her best friend Charles become someone she might like to kiss? After their lives take a tragic turn when Henry kills himself, Lucy and her mother escape to Peru, desperate for any solace and distraction Lucy’s father can provide. But when a local bookstore owner (and unapologetic poetry-pusher) who, like Lucy, is no stranger to grief, proves more present than her still-elusive father, Lucy must confront some hard truths about love and family, guilt and grief, and what to do when a best-friend-turned-crush is crushing on someone else. With searing prose and a poetic voice, debut author Sarah Callendar tackles one of the most difficult losses a person can experience in an unforgettable young adult novel.
