“Laura Wiess’s masterful prose kept me turning the pages.
This is the first book in a very long time that made me say,
‘Wish I’d written this’” (Ellen Hopkins, author of Crank, on
Such a Pretty Girl). Oh c’mon, Dad, nothing’s going to happen. And for sixteen year-old Rowan Areno, shielded by her
parents from the dark side of life, nothing bad usually
does…until that last Friday in March when Rowan cuts school
for a day of fun—and a random stranger’s shocking crime sets
a traumatic series of events into motion that will change
her life forever. The crime video goes viral, the cruel, relentless aftermath
threatening Rowan, her family, and Eli, a witness haunted by
losses of his own. But when tragedy strikes, shattering
Rowan’s world and destroying all she thought was true, not
even Eli can protect her from the devastation. Her life now divided into Before and After, Rowan struggles
to survive, searching for answers, and desperate to make
sense of what remains. She discovers that everyone grieves
differently, though, and the path to love and forgiveness
isn’t simple or straightforward. Will she carry these
emotional wounds with her forever, or with Eli’s help, can
she learn to trust, hope and believe in happiness again? Me Since You is Laura Wiess at her finest—a beautiful,
gripping, and painfully honest examination of love, loss,
and a family in crisis.
