The Book of Laney by Myfawny Collins

rhodereader

I’ve read books about school shooters before, but this is the first I’ve read about the family left behind. A beautifully sad story of surviving, moving on and choosing life. When Laney’s brother commits a stunning attack on her school and family she is left behind to wonder why he killed, and why she still lives. Sent to live with her hermit-like grandmother in a snow bound cabin, Laney is forced to listen to herself and the world around her.
Best for High School.

    Thank you very much for reading this book and for your commentary. I really appreciate it. I so want this book to get into the hands of young people so that it might speak to them. Thank you!
