Description

A beautifully realistic, relatable story about mental health and the healing powers of friendship and art, perfect for fans of Kathleen Glasgow's Girl in Pieces and Jennifer Niven’s All the Bright Places. 'Gorgeous and deeply touching.' – Kathleen Glasgow, New York Times bestselling author of Girl in Pieces and You'd Be Home Now 'Wild, beautiful, and free.

The Words We Keep is a poetic page turner. A raw, relatable story of mental illness, romance, and the power of love.' – Jennifer Niven, New York Times bestselling author of All the Bright Places It’s been two months since the Night on the Bathroom Floor – when Lily found her sister, Alice, hurting herself.

Now Alice is coming home after treatment and it’s getting harder for Lily to outrun the compulsive thoughts she's having.   Meeting Micah, a guy with a troubled past of his own, the pair embark on a poetry project that helps Lily to see that the words she’s been holding back, desperately want to break through.

But what will Micah think if he finds out who she really is?  'A sprawling, engrossing read' – Kirkus Reviews 'A luminous exploration into the restorative power of love and art.' – Jeff Zentner, Morris Award–winning author of In the Wild Light
