In Bloom - Thryft

A tale of hope amidst suffering for teens.

"In Bloom is a coming-of-age story that explores the challenges of adolescence, loss, and illness. Despite the somber subject matter, the book's focus on hope and resilience make it a great read for young adults. The budding romance between Francis and Amber is both heartwarming and realistic, and it gives readers something to root for amidst the bleakness of Francis's diagnosis. This book is perfect for anyone looking for a moving and poignant story about learning how to live and love in the face of adversity."

Description

Francis Wootton's first memory is of Kurt Cobain's death and there have since been other hardships much closer to home. At fifteen, he knows all about loss and rejection, and if he's honest, Francis - would-be poet, possible intellectual - feels he is wasted in Tyne and Wear. Lower Fifth is supposed to be his time: but when he is diagnosed with leukaemia, a whole new world of worry presents itself. There's the horror of being held back a year at school, the threat of imminent baldness. But he hadn't reckoned on meeting Amber and finding a reason to tackle it all - the good the bad and everything in-between - head on.
