Synopsis
Ten
years ago, Nora Glass started writing essays about being a single mother of a
six-year-old daughter. Her weekly column made her a household name, and over
the years, her fans have watched Ellie grow from a toddler to a teenager.
But
now Nora is facing a problem that can’t be overcome. Diagnosed with a
devastating disease that will eventually take away who she is, she is scared
for herself, but even more frightened about what this will mean for her
sixteen-year-old daughter.
Now
Nora has no choice but to let go of her hard-won image as a competent,
self-assured woman, and turn to the one person who has always relied on her:
her twin sister, Mariana. Nora and Mariana couldn’t be more different from one
another, and they’ve always had a complicated relationship. But now the two
sisters will have to summon the strength to help them all get through a future
none of them could have ever imagined, while uncovering the joy and beauty that
was always underneath.
