Everyone has scars. Some are just easier to see ...
16-year-old Ava Lee is heading back to school one year after a house fire left her severely disfigured. She’s used to the names, the stares, the discomfort, but there’s one name she hates most of all: Survivor. What do you call someone who didn’t mean to survive? Who sometimes wishes she hadn’t?
When she meets a fellow survivor named Piper at therapy, Ava begins to feel like she’s not facing the nightmare alone. Piper helps Ava reclaim the pieces of Ava Before the Fire, a normal girl who kissed boys and sang on stage. But Piper is fighting her own battle, and when Ava almost loses her best friend, she must decide if the new normal she’s chasing has more to do with the girl in the mirror — or the people by her side.
The beautiful, life-affirming debut from Erin Stewart that's being called the YA answer to Wonder. Perfect for fans of Jandy Nelson, Nicola Yoon and John Green.
“A heartfelt and unflinching look at the reality of being a burn survivor and at the scars we all carry. This book is for everyone, burned or not, who has ever searched for a light in the darkness.” – Stephanie Nielson, New York Times bestselling author of HEAVEN IS HERE and a burn survivor
"A gripping story, which examines what it means to survive." - i newspaper

O autorovi
Erin Stewart is a freelance writer and editor as well as a weekly columnist in Salt Lake City. She’s the author of Scars Like Wings, The Words We Keep, and The Forgotten Magic of Zoey Turner. Erin is a neurotic extrovert who thinks Hot Tamales should be a recognized food group. In kindergarten, her mom thought she needed a therapist because everyone exploded at the end of all her stories; nowadays, her characters have a slightly higher survival rate. Erin lives in Utah with her husband and three children.
