<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>After a fatal car accident that reveals Emory's brother Joey's opioid addiction, Emory struggles to help him on his road to recovery and make herself heard in a town that insists on not listening.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>From the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Girl in Pieces</i> comes a breathtaking story about a town, its tragedies, and the quiet beauty of everyday life.</b> <p/>For all of Emory's life she's been told who she is. In town she's the rich one--the great-great-granddaughter of the mill's founder. At school she's hot Maddie Ward's younger sister. And at home, she's the good one, her stoner older brother Joey's babysitter. Everything was turned on its head, though, when she and Joey were in the car accident that killed Candy MontClaire. The car accident that revealed just how bad Joey's drug habit was. <p/>Four months later, Emmy's junior year is starting, Joey is home from rehab, and the entire town of Mill Haven is still reeling from the accident. Everyone's telling Emmy who she is, but so much has changed, how can she be the same person? Or was she ever that person at all? <p/>Mill Haven wants everyone to live one story, but Emmy's beginning to see that people are more than they appear. Her brother, who might not be cured, the popular guy who lives next door, and most of all, many ghostie addicts who haunt the edges of the town. People spend so much time telling her who she is--it might be time to decide for herself. <p/>Inspired by the American classic <i>Our Town, You'd Be Home Now </i>is Kathleen Glasgow's glorious modern story of a town and the secret lives people live there. And the story of a girl, figuring out life in all its pain and beauty and struggle and joy.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"As beautiful as it is raw, <i>You'd Be Home Now </i>is an unflinching tale of addiction.
