Description
Roberta "Bobby" Harrison is over the moon now that Germany has surrendered. Her favourite brother, Alex, is back from overseas. Rick Anderson wants to kiss her. Her hospital volunteering has convinced her she has talent as a nurse—although her medical diagnoses aren’t always appreciated. Life should be wonderful for 15-year-old Bobby, but the wounds of war don’t heal easily. Alex is withdrawn, his spirit scarred by battle, Bobby’s sister may have to join her husband in Australia and her best friend has started dating Bobby’s brother Brian.... Why is everything changing? How did life become so confusing?
Written in diary form, this poignant and often funny sequel to Love-Lies-Bleeding will be a hit with ’tweens and teens everywhere.
