You'd Be Home Now

For all of Emorys life shes been told who she is. In town shes the rich one--the great-great-granddaughter of the mills founder. At school shes hot Maddie Wards younger sister. And at home, shes the good one, her stoner older brother Joeys babysitter. Everything was turned on its head, though, when she and Joey were in the car accident that killed Candy MontClaire. The car accident that revealed just how bad Joeys drug habit was.

Four months later, Emmys junior year is starting, Joey is home from rehab, and the entire town of Mill Haven is still reeling from the accident. Everyones telling Emmy who she is, but so much has changed, how can she be the same person? Or was she ever that person at all?

Mill Haven wants everyone to live one story, but Emmys beginning to see that people are more than they appear. Her brother, who might not be cured, the popular guy who lives next door, and most of all, many ghostie addicts who haunt the edges of the town. People spend so much time telling her who she is--it might be time to decide for herself.

A journey of one sister, one brother, one family, to finally recognize and love each other for who they are, not who they are supposed to be, Youd Be Home Now is Kathleen Glasgows glorious and heartbreaking story about the opioid crisis, and how it touches all of us.
