Rachel Bird-ebook

"[Becky Citra] measures out mysteries and revelations while chronicling a summer of discoveries—some tragic, even gruesome, but others that give Rachel whole new visions of her mother, her family, and of her own life... Readers, particularly those able to catch subtle cues and read between lines, will understand how events and insights gradually transform her vision of the future. An unexpectedly buoyant tale of loss and healing."

"Rachel Bird is a beautifully written multi-layered story... Its short chapters propel the story forward and will keep even reluctant readers engaged right to the end. This is a perfect summer read set against the backdrop of the remote and beautiful interior of British Columbia."

"Combines elements of mystery, romance and adventure… Citra has plenty of details making her setting authentic as Rachel learns to ride, hears coyotes howl and explores a beaver pond with a sinister surprise."

“Rachel’s close narration of events invites empathy with her struggle…. Despite dealing with heavy topics, this multidimensional story also includes light-hearted moments that round out a reading experience we highly recommend.”
