Apricots is the tender and whimsical sequel to Tangerines, told once again through the unforgettable voice of Gilly. A year after the forest night that changed everything, Gilly finds herself back at school, learning to write about the past, the present, and the things that hurt most. When Monty, a guitar-playing foster teen, enters her life and shakes up her friendship with Oggy, Gilly must navigate grief, change, jam games, and the kind of love that doesn't always end the way she hoped. With her signature blend of imagination and honesty, Gilly takes us on a journey filled with apricot pits, ghost prayers, almost-weddings, and the quiet strength it takes to accept what can’t be changed. For readers who believe that sometimes, the best stories are the ones you write for yourself.
