"More than a stunning debut. It is the announcement of a bold new literary voice"
—Stephen Chbosky, author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Hey grandma . It’s been about seven years since I’ve seen you. I miss you so much. There’s not a day that I don’t think of you. I miss all the memories we had , like when we’d go to the gas station and get bug juice. I wonder what it’s like in heaven. I wish you could tell me. I wish I could still talk to you , you were always there for me . You mean the world to me still , I wish you were here holding me in your arms right now . I was only in first grade when you left. If you were still here you’d know my parents got divorced , my mom has a new boyfriend and she had a baby on March 7,2016. His name is Jude. You missed Lilly’s tenth birthday in January. My fourteenth birthday is next month. My dads house has become complete hell grandma. You’re the glue that kept this family together. My mom misses you too. We all do. Even my dad. Well I love you so much grandma and I miss you so much. I hope you’re having fun in heaven.
