Gold Medalist 2022 Readers’ Favorite for Literary Fiction

Lily doesn’t remember her death, or even her reawakening, but she knows this: the sun is to be feared, words are her salvation, and—above all—the bench facing the playground is hers. She is the pin holding the hands of the clock, watching the world move and change around her while she remains fixed, lonely, and unchanged... until a boy takes a seat beside her.

A story about love, loss, and what it means to live forever.

Critic Reviews

"Quite simply one of the most heart achingly, beautifully written books which I have had the pleasure to read. This is 100% how it *should* be done." (Kenneth Baxter, author of Circles and Stones)

Aside from the main character being a vampire who kept her humanity & opened up to found family & a husband, it was a lovely story.
Until those last few chapters, where the author makes you cry and cry and cry. She makes you reflect upon your own life, family, love, and the precious time you may have left.
I finished it an hour ago and I am still crying.

That's one way to finish a book...
