The Space Life Leaves Behind

She had six months left. She chose to spend them making people smile. Nora Olaye has never let the dark keep her down. Not when she lost her mother. Not when she became the quiet backbone of everyone around her. And not now, when the doctors give her a year and she quietly decides that does not change anything that matters. But the world Nora steps into is anything but gentle. The family she has come to love is in debt to a man named Dice. He is cold, brilliant, and more dangerous than anything Nora has encountered. He runs his world like a chess game where he is always several moves ahead. And yet, when Nora sits across the board from him, something shifts. She is not afraid of him. She is the first person who has ever seen past the armor. Told through Nora's diary entries, The Space Life Leaves Behind is a story about what it costs to be the kind of person who keeps giving. About how much light one person can carry. About what happens to the people left behind when that light goes out. Nora is the kind of character who will stay with you. The kind you finish the book and then sit very still thinking about. The kind whose absence reshapes every room she used to fill. >What does life leave behind when someone like that disappears from it? Perfect for fans of The Fault in Our Stars, They Both Die at the End, and Six of Crows.
