Book overview
Fifteen-year-old Pennimar Green planned to spend the summer avoiding eye contact, people, and anything art-related-grief has a way of doing that. Instead, she and her family crash-land in Greenborough-a middle-of-nowhere town full of strangers who live louder, love harder, and believe deeper than she's ready for. The kind of place where everyone seems to notice everything... especially the things she's trying hardest to hide.
But this accidental detour might be exactly what Pennimar needs: a summer of unexpected friendships, honest conversations, and moments that gently (and sometimes not so gently) pull her back to herself. A summer that challenges her to see differently, feel again, and maybe-even if she's not ready to admit it-pick up her pencil once more. Of course, it wouldn't be Pennimar's life without a few wild blood sugars and unpredictable turns along the way.
A funny, heartfelt, and slightly chaotic coming-of-age story about growing up when life doesn't follow the script-and finding healing, purpose, and a little bit of courage in the most unexpected places.
