We Are Okay by Nina LaCour is a beautiful book about healing and the meaning of family.
Marin has not spoken to anyone from home since she left for college four months ago. Her best friend still texts her and is coming to visit in a few days in spite of the silence.
Marin grew up with her grandfather from the age of three when her mother died. When tragedy strikes again, she leave San Francisco for New York early. She has told on one at school about her past and has not really made any friends other than her roommate.
Now Mabel will be there any moment. And Marin will have to face what happened.
LaCour tells this beautiful, heartbreaking story with flashbacks into Marin's life growing up. I have loved LaCour's books since I read Everything Leads to You in 2015. She is an author not to be missed. Read this today.
