In this coming-of-age novel perfect for fans of Susane Colasanti and Jandy Nelson, a straight-A student in a family of free-spirited artists must face the hard truths about those she loves most.
Very Sayles-Woodruff could find the value of x with her eyes closed . . . but interpreting her mother's renowned paintings or her famous grandmother's poems don't come as easily. Even her younger sister, Ramona, has the same artistic leanings as the rest of their family. Very has always been the dependable, responsible one—until her grandmother becomes terminally ill, causing all of the pieces of Very's once-structured life to come crashing down. Now she's cast aside her steady boyfriend and started an unexpected fling with Dominic, a rebellious art student with a bad reputation.
Things at home have also taken a turn. Very's mother drinks all day, her father is never around, and Ramona is constantly skipping school. And that's when the sculpture appears. Out of nowhere, a bottle cap design starts climbing up the stucco walls of the Sayles-Woodruff house, mysteriously growing by the day. With her grandmother nearing death and things heating up with Dominic, Very also has to confront the fact that the person behind the sculpture is struggling more than she could have imagined.
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 9 Up—Very Sales-Woodruff is the versatile, down-to-earth good girl. Being clever, in control, and predictable allows her to be the glue that holds everything and everyone together—including her artistic family. However, Very is preoccupied with her grandmother's dying, her mother's alcoholism, and her sister's precarious behavior. After she learns that her grandmother was a famous local poet, Very starts to reconsider her last year of high school. Should she stay on the "right" path or stray and find her heart's true desires? The novel begins slowly, with an even pace throughout and a strong ending. Frazer guides readers through the complexities of family life and roles, choosing between individual needs and selflessness. Readers who admire poetry will enjoy how some passages refer to poetry. Fans of Jandy Nelson's I'll Give You the Sun (2010) and The Sky Is Everywhere (2014, both Dial) will appreciate the realistic, authentic, and lyrical teen voice that this novel has to offer. VERDICT A general purchase for school and public libraries.—Krista Welz, North Bergen High School, NJ
