Last year with Maddy by Anna Rosner

Rosner, Anna (Author).

Summary:

"Twelve-year-old's Maddy Li-Quinn and Aviva Adelman are the best of friends, innately connected through their love of the arts: Aviva loves to read poetry and Maddy is a gifted violinist. However, over the course of a painful year, very different family struggles drive the two girls apart. Maddy encounters violence in the home, and Aviva's baby brother faces a difficult diagnosis. Aviva's mother suggests she write a book about her friendship with Maddy to try to cope. In an attempt to heal through the written word, Aviva becomes the funny, feisty protagonist of her own book, reflecting back on her life, and realizing that she, too, has made many mistakes along the way."-- Provided by publisher.
