Description
High school senior, Claire Goodnight, has nothing left to keep her in her small town. Her best friend moved away, and the grandmother who raised her is dead. Claire is biding her time until graduation so she can escape her alcoholic mother, who has never wanted anything to do with her.
Everything changes when her long-time crush, Finn, asks her out. Their first date under the stars is the best thing to ever happen to her—maybe her wishes are worthy after all.
Yet, tragedy strikes when Finn suddenly dies, and Claire is left alone once more. But when Finn magically appears as a ghost who only Claire can see, she gets a second chance at love, and they begin their romance again—in secret.
Finn's reason for staying and an unexpected connection between Claire and Finn's families ultimately unravel everything Claire thought she knew about love, loss, forgiveness, and herself.

Somewhere between dandelions it’s a book that you don’t think you could read but that you end up crying for . A young adult story , definitely initially written for teens but the story it’s so heartbreaking and beautiful that is gonna break your heart and put it together all in once. If a book has the emotional ability to make me cry than it’s a good one .
This is such a sweet, heartfelt, and heartbreaking story of young love, death, grieving, and the effects all of those things have on us and those around us. I love how Claire and Finn help each other and each other’s families and how everyone begins their journey toward healing. I highly recommend this book!
“Wishes don’t come true. Not the ones made on candles pushed into birthday cakes or those whispered in the dark with hands pressed together. Especially not the ones made on dandelions.”
Somewhere Between Dandelions pulled me in from those first three sentences. It is the story of Claire who finds love, looses it, only to have it come back again. And yet, the story is so much more than that. This is a story of deep grief and sadness, hope, finding joy in small places, healing and the sweetness of wishing on dandelions.
Trisha Larson Harmon’s words float off the pages and softly land on your heart.
