LUCKY TO
HAVE YOU
Lucky to Have You, is a beautiful, heartbreaking, and unforgettable collection that reads like a story— a story you devour in a single sitting. She mixes delightfully specific diction with brutally hard ideas.
–Dr. Anne Elrod Whitney, author of Inkwell and Teaching Writers to Reflect
