The doodle-illustrated pages with Sarah's theories about everything...along with Sarah's nearly constant snarkiness, make this a story with which most teens can identify, even if they have not lost a close friend., Sarah's snappy yet pithy observations will appeal to teens working on their own theories about life., Readers will easily relate to Sarah's use of cynicism as a defense mechanism- her sharp-witted voice sets the tone for a story that's truly tragicomic., "...Sarah's snappy yet pithy observations will appeal to teens working on their own theories about life." -- Kirkus Reviews * "Readers will easily relate to Sarah's use of cynicism as a defense mechanism---- her sharp--witted voice sets the tone for a story that's truly tragicomic." -- Publishers Weekly (STARRED REVIEW)* "...One element that was different for me was incorporation of illustrations -- chapters begin and are decorated by Sarah's doodles and drawings and charts, all of which are incisive and piercing social critiques. I thought they added a wonderful layer to Sarah's personality and to the novel. Overall, Johnson's sophomore effort was extremely strong, an enjoyable read, despite the heavy subject matter. It was more tightly crafted and compelling than her first novel, This Girl is Different, and I was thrilled to see such development from this author. I will certainly pick up her next work." --By Anonymous Writer blog* "...The doodle--illustrated pages with Sarah's theories about everything...along with Sarah's nearly constant snarkiness, make this a story with which most teens can identify, even if they have not lost a close friend." -- School Library Journal *

Synopsis
Just because everyone else thinks you should be over it, doesn't mean you are. Last year, Sarah's best friend Jamie died in a freak accident. Back then, everyone was sad; now they're just ready for Sarah to get over it and move on. But Sarah's not ready to move on. She can't stop reliving what happened, struggling with guilt, questioning the meaning of life, and missing her best friend. Her grades are plummeting, her relationships are falling apart, and her normal voice seems to have been replaced with a snark box. Life just seems random: no pattern, no meaning, no rules -- and no reason to bother. In a last--ditch effort to pull it together, Sarah befriends Jamie's twin brother Emmett, who may be the only other person who understands what she's lost. And when she gets a job working for the local eccentric who owns a Christmas tree farm, she finally begins to understand the threads that connect us all, the benefit of giving people a chance, and the power of love., Just because everyone else thinks you should be over it, doesn't mean you are.

And when she gets a job working for the local eccentric who owns a Christmas tree farm, she finally begins to understand the threads that connect us all, the benefit of giving people a chance, and the power of love. Critically-acclaimed author J.J. Johnson gives readers a powerful look at the later stages of grief when the rest of the world has seemingly moved on.
