About This Book
Reach for this book when your teenager is feeling the immense pressure of adult responsibilities or struggling to navigate a world that feels increasingly unpredictable and broken. Following Addison, a young woman who illegally enters a surreal, dangerous disaster zone to provide for her traumatized sister, the story explores the lengths we go to for family. It is a visually stunning exploration of grief, financial survival, and the courage required to face the unknown. While the setting is fantastical, the emotional core deals with the very real experience of parental loss and the heavy mantle of being a sibling's primary protector. Parents should note the darker, surrealist horror elements and the older teen protagonist, making it ideal for high schoolers who appreciate complex, atmospheric storytelling.
