Publisher Description

Even though the cancer should be far behind him, Jeffrey still worries that it will return. He’s got normal teen stuff to deal with, too — friends, parents, girls, school. Normally, he’d ask his older brother, Steven, for advice. But Steven, always the trusty, responsible one, is finally rebelling and has taken off to Africa to join a drumming circle and “find himself.” Jeffrey feels abandoned. Meanwhile, his best friend, Tad, is hatching some kind of secretive, crazy plan involving eighth-grade graduation. And Lindsey Abraham, a way hot girl who is new to the school, thinks Jeffrey’s cute . . . which totally freaks him out. There’s a lot about life that cancer has prepared Jeffrey for, but there’s a lot that’s brand-new. Now it’s time for him to learn not only how to fight for himself but to stick up for the people he loves. Surprising and delightful at every turn, After Ever After is a real, tender, hopeful, and funny story about what happens when you stop surviving and start living again.

    " I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! Jordan Sonnenblick is one of my favorite authors. I cried all through this book and all through the companion book, Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie. I loved seeing everything from Jeffrey's point of view after reading it all from his brother's. "

    " Sonnenblick has a gift for making me laugh, cry, and then do both at the same time and this sequel to "Drums, Girls and Dangerous Pie" did not disappoint. I really don't know what else to say except to recommend that you read it. You won't be sorry. And it is one of those books that makes me feel that my time was well spent. "

    " It was a sad, but funny and happy story. I like how it is a story as the sequel to Drums, girls and dangerous pie, but has the younger brother telling the story instead of the older brother. "

    " Beth Gerall recommended this book in a NoveList column. Two High School boys who have been friends since 4th grade deal with long term effects of cancer treatment from their early childhood. Witty and touching; I laughed, I cried. "

    " I thought that this was a really good book. I think that Jordan Sonnenblick did a good job of writing the book in the perspective of Jeffery as a teenager. I think that there were some comparisons between the sequels, for example both books started as a 8th grade reflection. "

    " Truly a great book for not just young adults but for anyone. It's intended for middle school and into high school, but once you get into the story you don't want to put it down. "

    " This book is really good. I don't usually find good books to read, but this is one of them. I don't want to spoil anything, so all I will say is that the characters were really thought out and the story line is awesome. "

    " Now it's Jeffrey's turn as an 8th grader. (He's the younger brother from Drums, Girls & Dangerous Pie.) He also has a significant year as he develops a better relationship with his parents, faces academic challenges, experience first love, and learns the true meaning of friendship. "

    " OK not nearly as good as the first one,could've been a lot better if the conflict wasn't rushed i think that Sonneblick didn't complete the final book as well as i thought he would. "

    " Taken from a suggestion from someone else and one of the few YA books I read nowadays, this was a really good book. Flowed well, gave a different perspective than usual, created characters you cheered for. On my notes I wrote, "really, really good." "

    " Amazing work, but it's too sad. Just from the way things were going, I knew someone was going to die. But the author made the story realistic, and I like that. "

    " I loved Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie. This book is just as good (maybe better). Jeffery is now in 8th grade and he tells his story--which is totally different than his older brother's. Readers will connect with these characters as they struggle to define what really is important in life. "

    " Solid YA (middle school stuff). I will say that I was crying by the end, and I happened to be driving to work at the time, so that was awkward. I did get to liking the characters, and didn't even realize it was a sequel - so it was well done in a way that it could totally stand alone. "
