Upon arriving at high school, Laurel's first assignment is to write a letter to a dead person. This is how a year of one-sided correspondence with deceased actors, musicians, and poets begins, all of whom played an important role in the young girl's life. Through her letters, she paints her own portrait as a high school student, that of her new friends, her first love... And reveals how she manages to overcome the death of her sister.

"I know May is dead. I mean, I'm aware of it but it feels like it's not real. That she's still here, with me. That one night, she'll come back through the window after sneaking out and tell me about her adventures. Maybe if I can be more like her, I'll know how to live without her."
