“Oh, how I loved this heartbreaking, transfixing coming of age tale! A pitch-perfect, novelistic depiction of a childhood cut short by instability and loss, When She Comes Back reminded me of Jeanette Walls’ The Glass Castle. But Plank’s voice is purely her own, aced with humor and underpinned by deep, hard-won wisdom and self-knowledge. I loved it and you will, too.”
