The Places We Sleep

Caroline Brooks DuBois
3.97/5 (492 ratings)
It's early September 2001, and twelve-year-old Abbey is the new kid at school. Again.

I worry about people speaking to me / and worry just the same / when they don't.

Tennessee is her family's latest stop in a series of moves based on her dad's work in the Army, but this one might be different. Her school is far from Base, and for the first time, Abbey has found a real friend: loyal, courageous, athletic Camille.

And then it's September 11, 2001. The country is under attack, and Abbey's first period arrives.

Like a punch to the gut / like a shove in the girls' room / like a name I won't repeat.

Abbey's family falters in the aftermath of the attacks. With her mother grieving, and her father preparing for active duty, Abbey must cope with the tragedy - and her body's betrayal - on her own.
