Jane in Bloom by Deborah Lytton

Jane in Bloom by Deborah Lytton
182 pages
Truman Nominee

(from jacket cover)
in the shadow of loss, a wallflower blossoms

Jane's big sister, Lizzie, has always been the center of attention. No one ever pays attention to boring, plain Jane. But Jane's twelfth birthday marks the beginning of Lizzie's final descent into a fatal eating disorder, and Jane discovers that the only thing harder than living in her big sister's shadow is living without her.
In the wake of tragedy, Jane learns to look through her camera lens and frame life differently, embracing her broken family and understanding that every girl has her season to blossom.

Good book. Very light for the subject matter. It definitely tugs at your heartstrings.
