A Shattered World

Eleanor Andrews was just trying to make it through 8th grade when her twin sister, Hannah, passed away from cancer. And now that her dog-her last connection to her sister-has been taken from her own backyard, she's forced to ditch her typical quiet and cautious demeanor to get it back.

Simultaneously battling issues at home, at school, and within her own mind, Eleanor Andrews finds a quick friend in Kelsey, who's just moved in next door. The two grow closer as Eleanor enters the new school year without her twin sister, but is Kelsey the right kind of friend to rely on?

A Shattered World depicts Eleanor's struggle to find her voice, heal from grief, and face toxic relationships at school and at home. Author Sydney Horne portrays these difficult teenage and family relationships through an inquisitive, hopeful lens that shows how to find a way through the turmoil of losing a loved one.
