About the Books
Kathleen Glasgow writes contemporary young adult fiction that refuses to look away from hard truths. This four-book collection showcases her range as she moves between different teenage narrators, each carrying a private weight. Girl in Pieces follows Charlie Davis, a seventeen-year-old who has survived more loss than most people face in a lifetime and has turned to self-harm as a way to cope with unbearable emotional pain. How to Make Friends with the Dark centers on a teenage girl nicknamed Tiger, whose entire world is upended the day her mother suddenly dies, leaving her to navigate grief, loss, and the foster care system largely on her own. You'd Be Home Now introduces Emmy, the quiet, dependable daughter in a family thrown into crisis after her brother's addiction leads to a car accident that changes everything, forcing Emmy to question the role she has always played. The Glass Girl follows Bella, a teenager pulled in every direction by the people who depend on her, who discovers that alcohol offers the only relief from constant pressure until that relief becomes its own danger. Together, these novels form a collection about survival, identity, and the slow, hard work of healing, written with the kind of empathy that has made Glasgow a favorite among teen readers and educators who want honest, character-driven stories rather than easy answers. Each title stands on its own, so readers can start anywhere in the set and still be fully immersed in Glasgow's distinctive voice and emotionally rich storytelling.
