After she discovers The Terrible Thing, Easter Deetz goes looking for her sister but ends up pinned under a giant boulder with her legs crushed into tomato paste. Bored, disappointed, and thoroughly dismembered, Easter lies in The Woods with only sinister squirrels to keep her company, making it very difficult for her to think in peace. Easter Deetz struggles with The Lonely-a debilitating condition that affects all the women in her family. The Lonely makes people sad and it makes them lie. One day, Easter's sister drops a boulder on her in The Woods. As she bleeds to death, she's forced to face those lies with a bunch of judgmental squirrels watching. Which sucks. AGES: 12 to 18 AUTHOR: Ainslie Hogarth has an undergraduate degree in English Literature and Philosophy and a Masters in Creative Writing. She watches a lot of movies and has a lot more books in her head.
