Description

Mark grapples with the loss of his twin sister in this heart-wrenching novel of grief and resilience from National Book Award finalist Carrie Arcos.

Mark knows grief. Ever since the accident that killed his twin sister, Grace, the only time he feels at peace is when he visits the bridge where she died. Comfort is fleeting, but its almost within reach when hes standing on the wrong side of the suicide bars. Almost.

Graces best friend, Hanna, says she understands what hes going through. But she doesnt. She cant. Its not just the enormity of his loss. As her twin, Mark should have known Grace as well as he knows himself. Yet when he reads her journal, its as if he didnt know her at all.

As a way to remember Grace, Hanna convinces Mark to complete Graces bucket list from her journal. Marks sadness, anger, and his growing feelings for Hanna threaten to overwhelm him. But Mark cant back out. He made a promise to honor Graceand its his one chance to set things right.
