Evie and Her Nightmares
|
Review Quotes: "A raw, beautiful account of moving forward after your world is reshaped by loss." - Kirkus (starred review) Publisher Marketing: After the death of her best friend, Evie Leigh seeks solace in an online role-playing game. In the game, she finds purpose, community, and even romance. But online life alone can't sustain her, and the farther she pushes herself away from reality, the harder it will come back to bite. A stand-alone companion to the acclaimed Eliza and Her Monsters from award-winning author Francesca Zappia. Illustrated by the author. Without her best friend by her side, nothing feels important to Evie Leigh. Running on the track team isn't worth the effort, none of her other friends understand her anymore, and her spotless high school career is meaningless. Everything makes Evie feel numb and empty, until she discovers the fantastical world of the online role-playing game, Children of Hypnos, which her best friend had been obsessed with, but never really drew Evie in. Until now. Set in the world of Eliza and Her Monsters, Evie and Her Nightmares is about the depths we go to after a traumatic event and how we can find help and healing from the people we connect with online. Francesca Zappia once again proves herself a one-of-a-kind YA author with her unique literary voice, authentic portrayal of neurodiverse characters, willingness to touch on sensitive themes, and innovative multimedia format. Hand this book to fans of Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell and Every Last Word by Tamara Ireland Stone. Review Citations:
