Tell the Wolves I'm Home by Carol Rifka Brunt

Wait! Do you have a pencil? You're gonna need one to write down this title so you can check it out next time you're at the library.

It is the story of 14-year-old June. It's the late 1980s and her godfather/uncle, Finn, dies from AIDS. Her family doesn't provide much support, but she finds a connection with Finn's boyfriend, someone who may miss Finn almost as much as June does.

Touching, heart-wrenching, and beautiful all the way to the end. I really loved this book.
