You'd Be Home Now

Beskrivelse

A powerful contemporary YA novel from Kathleen Glasgow, exploring addiction, family dynamics, and the struggle to find one’s own voice. Emmy, the quiet and dependable sibling, faces a life-altering tragedy that challenges everything she thought she knew about herself and her family.

An emotionally charged story about identity, loss, and resilience in the face of addiction.

Emmy has always been the calm, obedient presence in her family-neither as strong-willed as her beautiful sister Maddie nor as troubled as her wild brother Joey, who has been in rehab. She's lived her life defined by others' expectations, quietly fitting into the role assigned to her.

But when a devastating accident shakes their small town, Emmy’s carefully maintained facade begins to crumble. She must confront the reality of her family’s struggles and find the courage to speak her truth.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Girl in Pieces and How to Make Friends with the Dark, this raw and heartfelt novel dives deep into the fragile world of an addict-adjacent teen. Praised for its honesty and emotional depth, You'd Be Home Now is a story that will break your heart and, ultimately, inspire hope.

Val Emmich, author of Dear Evan Hansen, calls it "a love story like you've never seen," while Amy Beashel, author of The Sky Is Mine, describes it as "vivid with fear and resplendent with truth."
