Easter Deetz struggles with The Lonely ―a debilitating condition that affects all the women in her family. The Lonely makes people sad and it makes them lie. One day, Easter's sister drops a boulder on her in The Woods. As she bleeds to death, she's forced to face those lies with a bunch of judgmental squirrels watching. Which sucks. "Dark and daring, this memorable debut should appeal to teens with a black sense of humor."― BOOKLIST "Some teens will revel in this surreal world full of gruesome humor."― VOYA
