Publisher Comments:

Seventeen-year-old Lennie Walker, bookworm and band geek, plays second clarinet and spends her time tucked safely and happily in the shadow of her fiery older sister, Bailey. But when Bailey dies abruptly, Lennie is catapulted to center stage of her own lifeaand, despite her nonexistent history with boys, suddenly finds herself struggling to balance two. Toby was Baileyas boyfriend; his grief mirrors Lennieas own. Joe is the new boy in town, a transplant from Paris whose nearly magical grin is matched only by his musical talent. For Lennie, theyare the sun and the moon; one boy takes her out of her sorrow, the other comforts her in it. But just like their celestial counterparts, they canat collide without the whole wide world exploding.

This remarkable debut is perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen, Deb Caletti, and Francesca Lia Block. Just as much a celebration of love as it is a portrait of loss, Lennieas struggle to sort her own melody out of the noise around her is always honest, often hilarious, and ultimately unforgettable.

Synopsis:

Lennie Walker, a 17-year-old bookworm and band geek, spends her time tucked safely and happily in the shadow of her fiery older sister, Bailey. But when Bailey suddenly dies, Lennie is catapulted to center stage of her own life.

Synopsis:

Lennie plays second clarinet in the school orchestra and has always happily been second fiddle to her charismatic older sister, Bailey. Then Bailey dies suddenly, and Lennie is left at sea without her anchor. Overcome by emotion, Lennie soon finds herself torn between two boys: Bailey's boyfriend, Toby, and Joe, the charming and musically gifted new boy in town. While Toby can't see her without seeing Bailey and Joe sees her only for herself, each offers Lennie something she desperately needs. But ultimately, it's up to Lennie to find her own way toward what she really needs-without Bailey. A remarkable debut novel perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen, Deb Caletti, and Francesca Lia Block.

I've read this book about three times, and I NEVER read books more than once! This is a must read for teenage girls.

This is my favourite book of last year. I read it twice...once from the library, and again when I got this copy from Powells. Beautiful, lyrical, musical, hopeful, painful, and laugh-out-loud funny. Don't miss this one.
