About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when their teenager is navigating the complex aftermath of a sudden loss or struggling with the crushing weight of things left unsaid. This companion story to 'If He Had Been with Me' provides a vital space for teens to process the 'what ifs' that accompany grief, guilt, and the transition into young adulthood without a loved one by their side. The narrative follows three distinct perspectives, offering a raw and honest look at how tragedy ripples through a social circle. While the themes of death and regret are heavy, the book also emphasizes the unexpected bonds that form in the wake of disaster and the slow journey toward forgiveness. It is an emotionally intense but rewarding read for mature teens who are ready to engage with the messy reality of healing.
