We Are Okay by Nina Lacour ( Abe Lincoln Book)

The books starts off with a lot of unknown questions for the reader. What has happened and who are these characters. As the story progresses we get snippets of what has happened in the past that has led us to this current future. I enjoyed this read and can see why it was selected to be on the Lincoln List.

Amazon Summary

You go through life thinking there’s so much you need. . . . Until you leave with only your phone, your wallet, and a picture of your mother.

Marin hasn’t spoken to anyone from her old life since the day she left everything behind. No one knows the truth about those final weeks. Not even her best friend Mabel. But even thousands of miles away from the California coast, at college in New York, Marin still feels the pull of the life and tragedy she’s tried to outrun. Now, months later, alone in an emptied dorm for winter break, Marin waits. Mabel is coming to visit and Marin will be forced to face everything that’s been left unsaid and finally confront the loneliness that has made a home in her heart.
