Set in a small town in the 1990s, this is the story of a girl on the edge - of a breakdown, of family secrets, of learning who she really is.

Life has been a struggle for Toby Goodman. Her mother died by suicide five years ago, and her father left before Toby was born. Now a teenager living on her grandparents' dairy farm, Toby has trouble letting people in. Convinced that she is destined to follow her mother's path, she creates a plan to escape her pain.

But with the news that her father is coming home and finally wants to meet her, Toby learns the truth of her parents' story. Her father is gay and a world-famous female impersonator - in a time when these facts are a source of small-town whispers and secrets, and not something anyone had dared talk with her about before.

As her careful plans go awry, Toby must rebuild her life from the ground up. While she might not follow an expected path, with the support of a quirky but lovable circle of friends and family, Toby will finally put together the many different pieces that make up her past, her present and her future.

I'm on a sad book kick lately, but I liked the hope this had. Toby hasn't had the easiest life growing up, her mother was schizophrenic and killed herself when Toby was young. She's never known her father and is tired of living, so she makes a plan to kill herself when her estranged father comes into her life. At first, it seems like meeting him isn't a good thing, he's irresponsible and mean, but as they get to know each other a bond forms.
Toby was a bit difficult for me to understand, but the hopelessness she felt was heartbreaking and I'm happy she came to realize she has a support system and could talk about her feelings. The dark thoughts made this a little tough to read, but it's important to have books like these and the light at the end of the tunnel made me smile.

Sad but hopeful
