- Synopsis
- From acclaimed author of Maybe He Just Likes You and Halfway Normal comes a powerful and moving story of learning how to grow, change, and survive.When twelve-year-old Zinnia Manning&’s older brother Gabriel is diagnosed with a mental illness, the family&’s world is turned upside down. Mom and Dad want Zinny, her sixteen-year-old sister, Scarlett, and her eight-year-old brother, Aiden, to keep Gabriel&’s condition &“private&”—and to Zinny that sounds the same as &“secret.&” Which means she can&’t talk about it to her two best friends, who don&’t understand why Zinny keeps pushing them away, turning everything into a joke. It also means she can&’t talk about it during Lunch Club, a group run by the school guidance counselor. How did Zinny get stuck in this weird club, anyway? She certainly doesn&’t have anything in common with these kids—and even if she did, she&’d never betray her family&’s secret. The only good thing about school is science class, where cool teacher Ms. Molina has them doing experiments on crayfish. And when Zinny has the chance to attend a dream marine biology camp for the summer, she doesn&’t know what to do. How can Zinny move forward when Gabriel—and, really, her whole family—still needs her help?
