I Googled myself and it said: ‘Glyn Dillon, the less talented brother of Steve.’ That burned a little but it was true This family tragedy gave him the push to pursue his dreams. It was work he loved but it also involved long, stressful hours and it had been nagging away at him that what he really wanted to do with his life, ever since he was a teenager, was paint. When it happened, Glyn was working at Pinewood Studios as a costume designer on the latest Star Wars movie. Steve’s death changed his younger brother’s life in all sorts of ways. “Had he just called an ambulance he would have been fine,” says Glyn.

Since it’s a young adult book I would recommend this to mature people who are young adults because there are a few parts that are graphic. I liked it because one chapter would lead me to the next one and I felt like I could never put the book down. ![]() I felt like the book was best young adult novel I’ve ever read and it was someone around my age. Jodi Picoult put a lot of details and twists into the book which she did well. It was a great book for all the images the words paint in your head and for how interesting it is.

Juneau manages to bring Miles back from the gunshot wound, but only because she put him through The Rite, a ceremony people of her clan undergo at 20 that keeps them from aging and disease.
