- Spalding,

- of
- We
- Used
- to
- Be
- FriendsNine
- months
- after
- the
- death
- of
- her
- father,
- Marigold
- is
- forced
- to
- pick
- up
- and
- move
- from
- sunny
- Los
- Angeles
- all
- the
- way
- across
- the
- country
- to
- rural
- upstate
- New
- York.
- According
- to
- her
- mom,
- living
- with
- her
- aunt
- in
- a
- big
- old
- house
- in
- the
- woods
- is
- the
- fresh
- start
- Marigold
- and
- her
- little
- sister
- need.
- But
- Mary
- aches
- for
- the
- things
- she’s
- leaving
- behind—her
- best
- friend,
- her
- older
- sister,
- her
- now-long-distance
- boyfriend,
- and
- the
- senior
- year
- that
- felt
- like
- her
- only
- chance
- at
- making
- things
- feel
- normal
- again.On
- top
- of
- everything,
- Mary
- has
- a
- troubling
- secret:
- she’s
- starting
- to
- forget
- her
- dad.
- The
- void
- he’s
- left
- in
- her
- memory
- is
- quickly
- getting
- filled
- with
- bonfires,
- house
- parties,
- and
- hours
- in
- the
- darkroom
- with
- Jesse,
- a
- fellow
- photographer
- and
- kindred
- spirit
- whom
- she
- can’t
- stop
- thinking
- about.
- As
- the
- beauty
- of
- Mary’s
- new
- world
- begins
- to
- sink
- in
- and
- her
- connection
- with
- Jesse
- grows
- stronger,
- she
- feels
- caught
- between
- her
- old
- life
- and
- her
- new
- one.
- Mary
- might
- just
- be
- losing
- her
- grip
- on
- the
- pieces
- of
- her
- life
- that
- she's
- tried
- so
- hard
- to
- hold
- together.When
- the
- two
- finally
- come
- crashing
- together,
- Mary
- will
- have
- to
- decide
- what
- she
- really
- wants
- and
- come
- to
- terms
- with
- the
- ways
- that
- the
- loss
- of
- her
- dad
- has
- changed
- who
- she
- is.
- Even
- if
- she
- can't
- hold
- on
- to
- her
- past
- forever,
- maybe
- she
- can
- choose
- what
- to keep.
