Lily And Taylor



Lily And Taylor by Elise Moser     188 pages
Taylor’s sister, Tannis, was killed by her abusive boyfriend, Bracken, so Taylor and Tannis’s son, Mason, have gone to live with her grandmother.  Taylor’s boyfriend, Devin, isn’t happy about this situation because she’s too far away.  Devin is a lot like Bracken, but since he lives so far away now, Taylor feels mostly safe, until Devin starts saying he’s coming to see her.  Lily is a girl at school, whose mother was in a car accident and now has some brain damage.  Her mom and dad are divorced and sometimes her mom’s boyfriends are abusive.  Lily and Taylor start to become friends at school, which could end up saving their lives.  A pretty good teen book about abusive relationships that girls would probably like more than boys.  In the back, domestic violence hotlines are listed for people who might need help.
