AS FEATURED ON SEASON 2 OF THE HIT NETFLIX SHOW,
HEARTSTOPPER
"Raw, real and deeply hopeful"
- ALICE OSEMAN, bestselling author of
HEARTSTOPPER
Rumi Seto
spends a lot of time worrying. What to eat, where to go, who to love. But one thing she is sure of - she wants to spend her life writing music with her younger sister, Lea.
Then Lea dies in a car accident, and Rumi is sent to live with her aunt in Hawaii. Now, miles from home, Rumi struggles to navigate the loss of her sister, feeling abandoned by her mother, and the aching absence of music.
With the help of the "boys next door" - teenage surfer Kai, who doesn't take anything too seriously, and old George Watanabe, who succumbed to grief years ago - Rumi seeks her way back to music, to write the song she and Lea never had the chance to finish.
With unflinching honesty,
Summer Bird Blue
explores big truths about insurmountable grief, unconditional love, and how to forgive even when it feels impossible.
PRAISE FOR SUMMER BIRD BLUE
"Raw, real and deeply hopeful. I will read anything Akemi Dawn Bowman writes. Much of Rumi's journey in
Summer Bird Blue
explores her discovering and accepting her aro-ace identity. She made me feel strongly seen in a way I don't think I've ever felt before in a book"
-
ALICE OSEMAN, bestselling author of
HEARTSTOPPER
"Bowman dives into the sea of grief with her protagonist and celebrates the kinds of love that are eclipsed all too often. With this remarkable book, she has cemented her position as one of the most progressive and insightful authors of her generation."
- SAMANTHA SHANNON bestselling author of
THE BONE SEASON and THE PRIORY OF THE ORANGE TREE
"
Summer Bird Blue
is without a doubt one of the best books I've read this year. It grabs your heart and won't let go."
