Title: Love Letters to the Dead
Description: *Sometimes the best letters go unanswered.*

It begins as an assignment for English; write a letter to a dead person.
Laurel chooses Kurt Cobain - he died young, and so did Laurel's sister May - so maybe he'll understand what Laurel is going through.

Soon Laurel is writing letters to lots of dead people - Janis Jolip, Heath Ledger, River Phoenix, Amelia Earheart, Amy Winehouse... It's like she can't stop. She writes about her new high school, her new friends, her first love - and her shattered life.

But the ghosts of Laurel's past can't be contained between the lines of a page forever. She must face up to them - before that consume her.
