OLDER FICTION
Blakemore, Megan Frazer

Good and Gone

(4) YA Lexi's heartbroken older brother, Charlie, rarely leaves the couch. Then a famous pop balladeer goes missing, and Charlie wants to find him. Lexi, brokenhearted herself, accompanies him on his journey. In between visits to quirky small towns, each sibling eventually reveals intense secrets, which Blakemore handles delicately. The focus on their sibling bond is refreshing but doesn't quite transcend the trite road-trip story line.
