@NatalieLima09 I recently finished the Grief Keeper by Alexandra Villasante and it was stellar. One of the best YA books I've read in a long time. Also, queer and sci-fi.

@gisselleyepes I felt like a real weenie sending that message, but your kindness made it worth it. Since TH, I had a daughter so my heart is very near and very full of love. I'm only just starting to feel I can re-enter the writing world again, but excited to do so.
