How to Be Brave, by E. Katherine Kottaras
For Georgia, the loss of her mother was a truly life-altering one, and as she works to pick up the pieces, the hardest one to figure out might be who she is now that the closest person in the world to her is gone. Georgia doesn’t want to fade away; she wants to live. So what better way than to make a list of all the things she’s always wanted to do and to go ahead and do them, no matter how much they scare her?

But real life is made up of both triumphs and failures, and Georgia will have to experience a whole lot of both to find herself along the way.
