Fans of Girl, Interrupted, Thirteen Reasons Why, and All the Bright Places will love this New York Times bestseller.
"A haunting, beautiful, and necessary book that will stay with you long after you've read the last page."-Nicola Yoon, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Everything, Everything and The Sun Is Also a Star
Charlotte Davis is in pieces. At seventeen she's already lost more than most people do in a lifetime. But she's learned how to forget. The broken glass washes away the sorrow until there is nothing but calm. You don't have to think about your father and the river. Your best friend, who is gone forever. Or your mother, who has nothing left to give you.
Every new scar hardens Charlie's heart just a little more, yet it still hurts so much. It hurts enough to not care anymore, which is sometimes what has to happen before you can find your way back from the edge.
A deeply moving portrait of a girl in a world that owes her nothing, and has taken so much, and the journey she undergoes to put herself back together. Kathleen Glasgow's debut is heartbreakingly real and unflinchingly honest. It's a story you won't be able to look away from.

"A haunting, beautiful, and necessary book that will stay with you
long after you've read the last page." —Nicola Yoon, #1 New York
Times bestselling author of Everything, Everything
"Equal parts keen-eyed empathy, stark candor, and terrible beauty.
This book is why we read stories: to experience what it's like to
survive the unsurvivable; to find light in the darkest night."-Jeff
Zentner, author of The Serpent King
"Raw, visceral, and starkly beautiful, with writing that is at
times transcendent in its brilliance. . . . An unforgettable story
of trauma and resilience."--Kerry Kletter, author of The First Time
She Drowned
"A breathtakingly written book about pain and hard-won healing . .
. I want every girl to read Girl In Pieces."-Kara Thomas, author of
The Darkest Corners and The Cheerleaders
“A Girl, Interrupted for a new generation….The story of the mad
girl is ultimately a story about being a girl in a mad world, how
it breaks us into pieces and how we glue ourselves back
together."—Melissa Febos, author of Whip Smart and Abandon Me
“Dark, frank, and tender, Girl in Pieces keeps the reader
electrified for its entire journey. You’re so uncertain if Charlie
will heal, so fully immersed in hoping she does.”—Michelle Wildgen,
author of Bread and Butter and You’re Not You
"Girl in Pieces has the breath of life; every character in it is
fully alive. Charlie Davis' complexities are drawn with great
understanding and subtlety."-Charles Baxter, author of National
Book Award finalist The Feast of Love
"Charlie Davis has been damaged and abused after several years of
living on the streets, but she is fiercely resilient. Though
it will appeal to readers of Ellen Foster, Speak, and Girl,
Interrupted, Girl in Pieces is an entirely original work,
compulsively readable and deeply human."-Julie Schumacher, author
the New York Times bestseller Dear Committee Members
★ "In Glasgow’s riveting debut novel, readers are pulled close to
Charlie’s raw, authentic emotions as she strains to make a jagged
path through her new life. Love and trust prove difficult, and
Charlie’s judgment is not well honed, but her will to survive is
glorious."—Booklist, Starred review
★ "[Readers] will find themselves driven to see Charlie’s story
through. They will better understand a world that often makes no
sense to outsiders. Glasgow’s debut novel is a dark read, but the
engaging writing will win an audience for [Glasgow]."-VOYA, Starred
review
"Heartbreaking and thick with emotion,...[Girl in Pieces is] for
avid fans of Jennifer Niven’s All the Bright Places or Susanna
Kaysen’s Girl Interrupted."-SLJ
