A beautiful new edition of the stunning debut novel by Nina LaCour, award-winning author of We Are Okay “Hold Still may be the truest depiction of the aching, gaping hole left in the wake of a suicide that I’ve ever read. A haunting and hopeful book about loss, love, and redemption.” – Gayle Forman, #1 bestselling author of If I Stay and I Have Lost My Way That night Ingrid told Caitlin, I’ll go wherever you go. But by dawn Ingrid, and her promise, were gone.Ingrid’s suicide immobilizes Caitlin, leaving her unsure of her place in a new life she hardly recognizes.
