A family broken apart by addiction, but hiding behind a perfect facade. For the first time ever, all three of Kathleen Glasgow's important and moving novels are collected in this three-book box set, which includes paperback editions of the New York Times bestseller Girl in Pieces, as well as How to Make Friends With the Dark and You'd Be Home Now. Girl in Pieces: Charlotte Davis is in pieces. At seventeen she’s already lost more than most people do in a lifetime. But she’s learned how to forget. Every new scar hardens Charlie’s heart just a little more, yet it still hurts so much. It hurts enough to not care anymore, which is sometimes what has to happen before you can find your way back from the edge. How to Make Friends With the Dark: Tiger's life changed with a simple phone call. Her mother has died. That's when darkness descended on her otherwise average life and her world is packed into a suitcase and moved to a foster home. And another. And another. Until hope surfaces in the shape of something Tiger never expected: a sister. You'd Be Home Now: Four months after a fatal car crash which killed one of her classmates and revealed just how bad her brother, Joey's, drug habit really was, Emmy's junior year is starting, Joey is home from rehab, and the entire town of Mill Haven is still reeling from the accident. Everyone's telling Emmy who she is, but so much has changed, how can she be the same person? Or was she ever that person at all?
