|summary=While it doesn't sustain an excellent start, this story of a teen blaming herself for her brother's death has its merits, including a very strong lead character.
}}
Not one of my favourite contemporaries in what’s an incredibly strong year for them, but worth keeping an eye out for. I should warn you that it's definitely towards the darker end of the scale, though. (I'm assuming that's probably obvious from the subject matter, but it was if anything slightly bleaker than I expected even given what I knew of it.)
Another story of a teen grieving after a death is the stunning [[Far From You by Tess Sharpe]], one of my favourites for many years. You might also appreciate [[Only Love Can Break Your Heart by Katherine Webber]].
