Before, Taylor Harper is finally popular, sitting with the cool kids at lunch, and maybe, just maybe, getting invited to the biggest, most exclusive party of the year. After, no one talks to her. Before, sheâs friends with Brielle Branson, the coolest girl in school. After, Brielle has become a bully, and Taylorâs her favorite target. Before, home isnât perfect, but at least her family is together. After, Mom wonât get out of bed, Dad wonât stop yelling, and Eli... Eliâs gone. Through everything, Taylor has her notebook, a diary of the year that one fatal accident tears her life apart. In entries alternating between the first and second semester of her eighth-grade year, she navigates joy and grief, gain and loss, hope and depression. How can Taylor pick up the pieces of what used to be her social life? How can her house ever feel like home again after everything thatâs happened? And how can she move forward if she canât stop looking back? An Imprint Book "Powerful... A resonant look at coming-of-age." âKirkus Reviews A Junior Library Guild Selection
