This book had so much potential but never delivered. The ending was also disappointing...nothing really resolved.

***SPOILERS***Jars of Glass ReviewClick https://www.pinterest.com/itsjoeytan/... to go to my Pinterest art gallery. Jars of Glass is a book by Brad Barkley and Heather Helper. Its a book which has a strong theme of family. Not just a family in general, but all its ups and downs, all its rights and wrongs, and the deepest darkest secretive parts of a family. This book is about two teenage sisters, Chloe and Shana. They remember the days when their mother would talk about the stars and the voices

My copy is a 246p. ARC of the book with the isbn listed for this edition under the 13 digit isbnI don't very often dip into YA reading though I have recommendations of YA frequently from the younger daughter bookster. This one she had on her shelves when we did the bookcase switch over the hoildays last Novemeber and I brought it home as it looked interesting.

I liked this story, it had a great connection with the

Very cute, solidly written book. The ending was tied up in a perfect little bow. I think this story is more geared towards younger teens as it has a kind of coming to age plot. This was a re-read for me and while I dont regret reading it again, I dont think Ill be keeping it.

Beautifully written from 2 perspectives/2 authors. Voice is very strong and authentic. Two teenage sisters are trying to stay afloat after their artist mother is committed to a mental hospital, their father's alcoholism increases, and their adopted brother from Russia remains mostly noncommunicative. The family lives above a funeral home, to further the maudlin tone. Not much happiness and may not appeal to all YA readers, but beautiful prose and moments of hope here and there make it a
