Cold Girls

Autor Maxine Rae
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 aug 2023 – vârsta până la 18 ani
Eighteen-year-old Rory Quinn-Morelli doesn’t want to die; she wants refuge from reality for even a minute: the reality where she survived the car crash eight months ago, and her best friend, Liv, didn’t. Yet her exasperating mother won’t believe the Xanax incident was an accident, and her therapist is making it increasingly hard to maintain the detached, impenetrable “cold girl” façade she adopted from Liv. After she unintentionally reconnects with Liv’s parents, Rory must decide: will she keep Liv’s and her secrets inside, or will she finally allow herself to break? And if she breaks, what will she unearth amid the pieces?

Recenzii

"[A] poignant, deeply moving portrait of friendship and grief. . . . Reading like a next-generation Perks of Being a Wallflower, this is the perfect what’s-next for readers who cried their way through Benway’s A Year to the Day and Thao’s You’ve Reached Sam, or those who appreciate the power of a life-changing friendship." —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

“A heart-wrenching story of friendship, grief, and identity. . . .The heart of Liv and Rory’s story, the painstaking confrontation of loss, and the unconditional embrace of a parent’s love are deftly threaded through the pristine prose. However, it is Rory’s teetering between then and now that tethers all this unbearable beauty as she tackles the exquisiteness of healing, acceptance, and love. A vibrant and poignant must-read.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"Deftly crafted . . . . Cold Girls is unreservedly recommended for middle school, high school, and community library YA Fiction & LGBTQ collections." —Midwest Book Review

“[T]his story provides a cathartic and nuanced slice-of-life for high schoolers to see themselves in.” —Children’s Literature
