The Last Time We Say Goodbye

by Cynthia Hand

After her brother’s death, one unopened wound remains: the message he sent that Lex has told no one about.

About The Last Time We Say Goodbye

Since her younger brother Tyler died by suicide, Lex has tried to contain her grief while her family and friendships fracture around her. As she begins rebuilding her life, she is haunted by a secret she has kept from everyone: a text Tyler sent on the night he died, one that might have changed what happened. Facing that message becomes part of learning how to live with loss.
