Preview: Hear it

Janes big sister, Lizzie, has always been the center of attention. No one ever pays attention to boring, plain Jane. But when Janes twelfth birthday marks the beginning of Lizzies fi nal descent into a fatal eating disorder, Jane discovers that the only thing harder than living in her big sisters shadow is living without her. In the wake of tragedy, Jane learns to look through her camera lens and frame life differently, embracing her broken family and understanding that every girl has her season to blossom. Spare and vulnerable prose marks this beautiful debut that is at once heartbreaking and uplifting.
