Saving Grace

I tend to get bored with books really fast so what I do is pick up a book, read some of it, then pick up another book, then come back to it later. But this book was different. Saving Grace by Katherine Spencer is about a girl who loses her brother, Matt, of which she is really close to. As the story goes on you learn about what happened to her brother and the effects it is having on Grace. She can't stand to be around her friends; they remind her too much of Matt. Grace finds some new friends, the popular kids. They drink, they smoke, and they get in trouble, but anything is better than the painful reminders of Matt. Then a girl named Philomena shows up right when the most painful reminders of Matt's death are surfacing.. She always seems to be there in Grace's most difficult moments.
