We Wait for the Stars

When clouds roll in, wool-thick and grey,
and it’s harder to breathe than before,
when we can’t remember Dad’s face
or how he sounded anymore,
we wait for the stars.

After losing her dad, Celeste’s life feels like it’s splintering. Then she makes a new friend in Katie, who shares her love of the beach, and meets Reuben, a fellow photographer. Maybe a new friendship group is just what she needs – as long as she keeps her growing attraction to Reuben out of the equation. But Celeste soon finds that emotions can’t be bottled up…

A stunning novel in verse, perfect for fans of Sarah Crossan, Elizabeth Acevedo, Dean Atta and Tia Fisher.
