Two teens meet after tragedy and learn about love, loss, and letting go Naima Rodriguez doesnβt want your patronizing sympathy as she grieves her father, her heroβa fallen Marine. Sheβll hate you forever if you ask her to open up and remember him βas he was,β though thatβs all her loving family wants her to do in order to manage her complex OCD and GAD. Sheβd rather everyone back the-eff off while she separates her Lucky Charms marshmallows into six, always six, Ziploc bags, while she avoids friends and people and living the life her father so desperately wanted for her. Dew respectfully requests a little more time to process the sudden loss of his parents. It's causing an avalanche of secret anxieties, so he counts on his trusty voice recorder to convey the things he canβt otherwise say aloud. He could really use a friend to navigate a life swimming with pain and loss and all the lovely moments in between. And then he meets Naima and everythingβs changedβjust not in the way he, or she, expects. Candace Ganger's Six Goodbyes We Never Said is no love story. If you ask Naima, itβs not even a like story. But it is a story about love and fear and how sometimes you need a little help to be brave enough to say goodbye.
