All River Flow To The Sea by Alison McGhee
A teenager confronts tragedy and first love in this heart-rending and honest young adult novel.
Again and again, seventeen-year-old Rose Latham relives the collision that left her older sister, Ivy, in a coma, a respirator keeping her alive. She looks for support from those around her, but her mother refuses even to visit the hospital. So it's up to Rose and family friend William T. to make the daily vigil to Ivy's bedside. More and more, Rose has the frightening sense that there are rivers inside her, threatening to overflow their banks... Paralysed by memories and faced with denial, she must come to terms with tragedy, and learn to let go.
