Description

After the sudden deaths of her father and her autistic younger brother, Cedar Lee arrives at a Shakespearean theater festival determined to keep moving—one rehearsal, one performance, and one day at a time. As she settles into the rhythms of summer and the stage’s demanding magic, she forms an unexpected friendship that challenges her to feel what she’s been trying to bury. Blending grief with coming-of-age discovery, this story explores love, identity, and the ways art can hold space for pain without erasing it. With Ally Condie’s lyrical, emotionally attuned style, Cedar’s journey becomes a tender, hopeful look at resilience and the slow, honest work of healing.
