Saint Anything

Sarah Dessen

Sydney had a best friend, someone who she could look up to and count on, that would never leave her, or she thought… then the drinking and drugs came, and he was gone in a flash. Fast forward to the accident; an accident that would change so many lives and that leaves a grief in her heart forever. He’s gone for real this time, leaving a toll on his whole family. Her parents are stressed and they drop all the pressure of it all on her and it leaves her feeling simultaneously invisible and angry. Letting all of this get to her, she transfers schools wanting a new start, and she never could’ve imagined the people that come into her life.
Meet the Chatham family; the two complete opposite sisters, the ailing mother that manages to be the glue to keep her family together, the crazy dad, and of course the quiet and observant older brother. Spend a day or two with them down at their pizza place, and you’ll never get rid of them. Sydney finally finds a family, a best friend and if she gets lucky, someone who will finally be able to see her for her. Will she be able to overcome the grief and guilt that haunts her thoughts and shatters her heart? If you’re in the mood for a sob story with a few twists and turns, gut wrenching heart aches, and some laughing out loud, Saint Anything is the book for you.
