Glitter Gets Everywhere

This debut novel is a poignant exploration of grief, change, and hope, perfect for fans of Lisa Graff and Lindsey Stoddard. After Kitty’s mother dies on an inappropriately sunny Tuesday, all Kitty wants is for her life to go back to “normal”—whatever that will mean without her mum. Instead, her dad announces that he, Kitty, and her sister are moving from their home in London to New York City, and Kitty will need to say goodbye to the places and people that help keep her mother’s memory alive. New York is every bit as big and bustling as Kitty’s heard, and as she adjusts to life there and befriends a blue-haired boy, she starts to wonder if her memories of her mum don’t need to stay in one place—if there’s a way for them to be with Kitty every day, everywhere. Moving to a New City: Kitty must leave her life in London behind for the bustling streets of New York, a place that feels a million miles from her mom’s memory. An Honest Look at Grief: A touching story that explores grief not just as sadness, but as something that, like glitter, gets everywhere—a constant reminder of love. Finding Friendship: Just when she feels most alone, Kitty meets a new friend with blue hair who helps her see that making new memories is possible. Sisters and Family: Follows the journey of Kitty, her older sister Imogen, and their dad as they learn how to be a family of three.
