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. The broken glass washes away the sorrow until there is nothing but calm. You don't have to think about your father and the river. Your best friend, who is gone forever. Or your mother, who has nothing left to give you.
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.
A deeply moving portrait of a girl in a world that owes her nothing, and has taken so much, and the journey she undergoes to put herself back together. Kathleen Glasgow's debut is heartbreakingly real and unflinchingly honest. It's a story you won't be able to look away from.

Equal parts keen-eyed empathy, stark candor, and terrible beauty. This book is why we read stories
to experience what it's like to survive the unsurvivable; to find light in the darkest night.-Jeff Zentner, author of

Charlie Davis' complexities are drawn with great understanding and subtlety.
-Charles Baxter, author of National Book Award finalist
The Feast of Love
Charlie Davis has been damaged and abused after several years of living on the streets, but she is fiercely resilient. Though it will appeal to readers of Ellen Foster,
Speak
, and
Girl, Interrupted
,
Girl in Pieces
is
an entirely original work, compulsively readable and deeply human.
-Julie Schumacher, author the
New York Times
bestseller
Dear Committee Members
In Glasgow's riveting debut novel, readers are pulled close to Charlie's raw, authentic emotions
as she strains to make a jagged path through her new life. Love and trust prove difficult, and Charlie's judgment is not well honed,
but her will to survive is glorious.
--Booklist,
Starred review
[Readers] will find themselves driven to see Charlie's story through. They will better understand a world that often makes no sense to outsiders.
Glasgow's debut novel is a dark read, but the engaging writing will win
an audience for [Glasgow].-
