A parent would reach for this book when their teenager is struggling with unresolved grief or the heavy burden of family secrets that feel impossible to talk about. It is an ideal choice for the child who feels stuck in the past or is trying to reconstruct their identity following the loss of a sibling. The story follows Sorrow, a young woman returning to her family's apple orchard years after her sister's tragic death. As she searches for her lost memories of that day, she uncovers a generational history of magic and silence. This is a atmospheric, slightly eerie contemporary fantasy that explores the complexities of mother-daughter relationships and the necessity of facing painful truths to move forward. Parents might choose this to open a dialogue about how families process trauma differently and the importance of finding one's own voice amidst a legacy of expectations.
