Editor's Note

Zevin takes an extraordinary premise and treats it with remarkable tenderness. Elsewhere speaks about death, grief and growing up without becoming overwhelmingly dark, finding warmth, humour and hope in a story about accepting the life — or afterlife — we are given.

Why We Selected This Book

Because its premise is wonderfully imaginative, but its emotional questions are universal. Beneath the fantasy of a world where everyone ages backwards is a thoughtful story about loss, identity, family, love and the difficult art of moving forward.

Who Will Enjoy This Book

Readers who enjoy imaginative, emotionally intelligent stories that blur the line between contemporary fiction and fantasy.
Particularly suited to YA readers and adults who appreciate thoughtful novels about grief, love, second chances and what gives a life meaning.
