Fam's prose is searingly true. -- Jennifer Echols, author of SUCH A RUSH and DIRTY LITTLE SECRET "Fam creates a startling coming-of-age story that is neither sentimental nor clichéd." -- Kirkus Reviews "This debut novel is a stunner...Forget comparisons to other authors; Fam stands on her own in weaving the narrative between new adults and the teens they were before." -- Romantic Times BOOKclub, Top Pick, 4 1/2 stars [Fam] has created a powerful story, and beautifully developed characters that ring true, regardless of one's upbringing as the loss of innocence, betrayal, and teenage angst tend to be universal for almost everyone. -- Examiner.com, This debut novel is a stunner...Forget comparisons to other authors; Fam stands on her own in weaving the narrative between new adults and the teens they were before., An intense and compelling page-turner about what keeps us loyal to friends and lovers who betray us, and one young woman's struggle back from the brink.

Synopsis
Fans of Alice Sebold and John Green will be transfixed by this sophisticated, edgy debut novel packing dark humor, biting wit, and a lot of Jack Daniels. Who put the word fun in funeral ? I can't think of anything fun about Rachel's funeral, except for the fact that she won't be there. Aubrey Glass has a collection of potential suicide notes--just in case. And now, five years--and five notes--after leaving her hometown, Rachel's the one who goes and kills herself. Aubrey can't believe her luck. But Rachel's death doesn't leave Aubrey in peace. There's a voicemail from her former friend, left only days before her death, that Aubrey can't bring herself to listen to--and worse, a macabre memorial-turned-high-school reunion that promises the opportunity to catch up with everyone . . . including the man responsible for everything that went wrong between Aubrey and Rachel. In the days leading up to the funeral and infamous after party, Aubrey slips seamlessly between her past and present. Memories of friendship tangle with painful new encounters while underneath it all Aubrey feels the rush of something closing in, something she can no longer run from. And when the past and present collide in one devastating night, nothing will be the same again. But facing the future means confronting herself and a shattering truth. Now, Aubrey must decide what will define her: what lies behind . . . or what waits ahead., Who put the word fun in funeral I can't think of anything fun about Rachel's funeral, except for the fact that she won't be there.

    Another wonderful transaction with this company! I believe this is my 3rd purchase with multiple books in each order and I’ve yet to be disappointed. Books arrived as described - great used condition. Packaging wasn’t great but it’s free shipping and they made it to me intact, so no complaints. The price is unbeatable. Will definitely continue to purchase from them! Highly recommend.
