Beneath a Meth Moon: An Elegy Paperback - 2013
by Jacqueline Woodson
Still reeling from the loss of her mother and grandmother during Hurricane Katrina, Laurel Daneau has moved on to a new town. Laurel's new life is going well, with T-Boom, co-captain of the basketball team, for a boyfriend. When T-Boom introduces Laurel to meth, she immediately falls under its spell.
Summary
Hurricane Katrina took her mother and granmother. And even though Laurel Daneau has moves on to a new life--one that includes a new best friend, a spot on the cheerleading squad, and dating the co-captain of the football team--she can't get past the pain of that loss. Then her new boyfriend introduces her to meth, and Laurel is instantly seduced by its spell, the way it erases, even if only temporarily, her memories. Soon Laurel is completely hooked, a shell of her former self, desperate to be whole again, but lacking the strength to break free. But with the help of a new friend--and the loyalty of an old one--she is able to rewrite her own story and move on with her own life.
Dreamlike in quality and weaving flashbacks to the hurricane in with Laurel's present-day struggles, this is a stunning novel that readers won't want to miss.
