Seven months ago, on a rainy March night, sixteen year- old Willow’s parents died in a horrible car accident. Willow was driving. Now her older brother barely speaks to her, her new classmates know her as the killer orphan girl, and Willow is blocking the pain by secretly cutting herself. But when one boy —one sensitive, soulful boy—discovers Willow’s secret, it sparks an intense relationship that turns the “safe” world Willow has created for herself upside down.
Told in an extraordinary fresh voice, Willow is an unforgettable novel about one girl’s struggle to cope with tragedy, and one boy’s refusal to give up on her. Contemporary Difficult Situations Family & Relationships Literature & Fiction Romance

Reviews

“Lush and intense, tortured and romantic, this is a compelling story with some wellnigh irresistible elements.”—BCCB

“Hoban takes readers on an intense journey that allows them to see a cutter’s painful reality.”—School Library Journal

“[An] unusual story of first love and redemption.”—VOYA

“The stark clarity of the present tense, third-person narration echoes the numbing effect that Willow achieves through cutting . . . a credible depiction of a grieving girl’s struggle toward self-forgiveness.”—Publishers Weekly
