In this powerful sequel to the acclaimed novel-in-letters P.S. Longer Letter Later, best friends Elizabeth and Tara*Starr are still totally different. Tara*Starr accessorizes with glitter and sequins and loves to be in the spotlight. Elizabeth loves to read and write poetry and hates to be the center of attention. Though the two live far from each other, they continue to correspond regularly–now via e-mail.
But distance–and unexpected life events, put the girls’ friendship to the test. When Tara*Starr’s parents announce her mother is pregnant, Tara*Starr has to get used to the idea of being a big sister for the first time. And just as Elizabeth adjusts to her parents’ separation and realizes the extent of her father’s alcoholism, life spins tragically out of control for her family
Through a correspondence more touching than ever, the lives and changing relationship of these two friends is chronicled with warmth, humor, and heart.
Paula Danziger grew up wanting to be an author . . . and then she became one. She wrote over 25 books, traveled to more than 15 countries, and was the kind of colorful character you might find in one of her books. She loved to play, make new friends, and wear purple clothes and nail polish. Sadly, Paula Danziger passed away on July 8, 2004. Amber Brown—and the rest of her book characters—will continue to live on.
