What we carried as children can still carry us now.
On the cusp of adulthood, one girl must weigh the comfort of the past against the cost of staying true to herself.
As senior year slips through her fingers, Avery Gonzales finds herself at a fragile crossroads. College applications loom, her boyfriend urges her toward a closeness she isn’t sure she’s ready for, and her best friend becomes unpredictable, demanding, and is quietly unraveling.
For years, Avery and Rosie have been inseparable, their bond forged in the fires of girlhood and secrets whispered in the dark. But as Rosie’s influence grows more possessive, Avery seeks guidance from an unlikely source: her beloved childhood toys. With their whimsical wisdom, Avery begins to untangle what it means to navigate the beginnings of adulthood without letting go of who she is.
Introspective and touched with magic, Rosie is a tender coming-of-age story about friendship, change, and the quiet courage it takes to grow up.
