"Hold Still" by Nina LaCour
In "Hold Still" by Nina LaCour, sixteen-year-old Caitlin, the main character, overcomes the death of her best friend Ingrid, who committed suicide. Over the course of the book, set in a suburb of San Fransisco in the twenty-first century, Caitlin meets Dylan,the new girl, mends her relationship with her favorite teacher Ms. Delani, and learns what friendship means. This fictional novel was painful, intense, and wove an intricate story that was always hopeful, despite the harshness. I enjoyed this well written book.
