The Sister Pact
Um þessa rafbók
Allie is devastated when her sister commits suicide—and it's not just because she misses her. Allie feels betrayed. The two made a pact that they'd always be together, in life and in death, but Leah broke her promise and Allie needs to know why.
Her parents hover. Her friends try to support her. And Nick, sweet Nick, keeps calling and flirting. Their sympathy only intensifies her grief.
But the more she clings to Leah, the more secrets surface. Allie's not sure which is more distressing: discovering the truth behind her sister's death or facing her new reality without her.
A great pick for:
- Fans of Jodi Picoult's The Pact and Lynn Weingarten's Suicide Notes from Beautiful Girls
- Readers looking for depression young adult books and teen romance
- Buyers of contemporary young adult

Praise for The Sister Pact:
"A well-written portrait...reminiscent of Jennifer Brown's Hate List...and Gayle Forman's I Was Here. A heavy but powerful read that tackles big topics without letting them drag the narrative down."—Booklist
"A powerful story of redemption, forgiveness, love, and the ability to persevere."—VOYA Magazine
"The story reads like Go Ask Alice...As Allie learns the many sordid secrets of her sister's concealed life, she begins to understand the powerful influence her sister had on her and, a talented painter, struggles to find her own voice. "—Kirkus
"The story is well written and will hold teens' interest."—School Library Connection
