Description

After leaving home behind, tough and fiercely independent Beverly Tapinski sets out to build a life on her own terms. As she finds work, shelter, and unexpected companionship in a new town, she struggles to keep her distance from the memories and relationships she believes she no longer needs. Gradually, the people around her help Beverly confront grief, loneliness, and the possibility of belonging. Tender, funny, and emotionally resonant, this moving middle-grade novel explores resilience, friendship, family, and the quiet courage it takes to let others care.
