Review "Rufener's treatment of grief is nuanced and deeply felt, and Aggi's and Max's complex feelings about themselves, their families, and their aborted romance drive the skillfully crafted narrative. A compelling story about grief told through the voices of two expertly drawn protagonists." (Kirkus Reviews)"A powerful story about grief, loss, and the restorative nature of love, SINCE WE LAST SPOKE will stay with you long after you've finished."(Amber Smith, New York Times bestselling author of The Way I Used to Be and The Last to Let Go) "Rufener successfully weaves difficult subjects into a real and relatable narrative without platitudes or apologies. This is a modern-day Romeo and Juliet story that stands on its own. This book is a definite first purchase for high school libraries." (School Library Journal, STARRED review)"Readers who enjoy narratives of resilience after devastating loss will appreciate Aggi's and Max's struggles to recover and find each other again." (The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books) Read more About the Author Brenda Rufener is a technical writer turned novelist, a graduate of Whitman College, and lives in North Carolina with her family.
