"Sasha's journey through grief and self-discovery amid the
realities of living during the Trump presidency makes Schneider's
latest a relatable and timely read. The lessons Sasha learns are
relevant to teen experience. The family drama will pull at your
heartstrings, the romance will warm your chest, and the fight
between expectations and happiness will remind you what makes us
all human." -- Booklist"Perennial teen
themes of fitting in, self-discovery, and truth-telling [with a
main character that] is bisexual. For teen readers who are slowly
uncovering their own truths, the pace might feel appropriate." --
Kirkus Reviews"This is the book I wish
I'd had when I was growing up. Robyn Schneider's thoughtful
exploration of family, sexuality, and self is for anyone who's ever
wondered who they are. You Don't Live Here will break your
heart . . . and then put it back together again." -- Amy
Spalding, bestselling author of The Summer of Jordi Perez (and
the Best Burger in Los Angeles)"A vulnerable, funny,
and deeply human story about learning to be who you truly are.
Sasha Bloom is close to the author's heart and you can tell.
Schneider lovingly guides her through loss, isolation, first love,
and self-acceptance with remarkable skill -- and plenty of hugs and
high-fives along the way. Her best book yet." -- Tamara
Ireland Stone, New York Times bestselling author of
Every Last Word"A heartfelt bisexual triumph,
You Don't Live Here navigates grief and growing up with
tenderness and charm. Sasha's high school journey is too real, and
every emotion resonates." -- C.B. Lee, author of Not
Your Sidekick"In You Don't Live Here, Robyn Schneider
writes about sexuality, self-discovery, and how to survive having a
family with wit, charm, and remarkable tenderness. A perfect book
for anyone who's ever found herself somewhere she never meant to
end up-- and had to figure out how to make a home for herself there
anyway. " -- Zan Romanoff, author of Grace and the
Fever and Look"This gorgeous story of
romance and renewal nestled within the California coast is
everything readers expect from Robyn Schneider and more, with a
wonderfully human heart wrapped in witty, immersive writing. A
uniquely personal novel from an inimitable voice." -- Emily
