Written by Jennifer Maschari
This book explores loss, friendship, and the value of memories. Charlie and his family are struggling to cope with the death of his mother and trying to build a new normal. When he finds an alternate reality where his mom is still alive he is tempted to stay, but the new world comes with a heavy price. The book looks at the value of friendship and how important the memories of those we love are. This would be a great book club read for a grief support group.
