Description 285 pages ; 20 cm Summary "Since Ava lost Kelly, things haven't been going so well. Even before she gets thrown out of school for shouting at the principal, there's the simmering rage and all the weird destructive choices. The only thing going right for Ava is her job at Magic Kebab. Which is where she meets Gideon. Skinny, shy, anxious Gideon. A mad poet and collector of vinyl records with an aversion to social media. He lives in his head. She lives in her grief. The only people who can help them move on with their lives are each other."--Back cover Analysis Australian Notes For ages 14+ Winner of the Text Prize 2016 Subject Best friends -- Death -- Juvenile fiction.
