Renée Watson
Bliss knows there’s more to life than what she’s experienced in her small town. She’s ready to be the girl who isn’t just waiting anymore, who can make something happen. Working in her family’s funeral home, she can’t help but ponder what it means to truly live and what it takes to leave a lasting legacy. Her existential questions have labeled her the weird “funeral home girl” to most of her peers, except for her best friend, Alex, and the new boy visiting from Portland for winter break.
Solomon isn’t put off by Bliss’s musings. He has questions of his own, like why his mother abandoned him and if she ever did--or ever will--love him. He has come to visit for answers, and to work at his mom’s flower shop, where he meets Bliss on a delivery to the funeral home.
Their chance meeting changes everything. As they open up to each other, share their hearts and experience something real, something new, they find that even if a relationship has an end, love can last forever.
Powerful, moving, and inspiring, Everything New Again is a story of first love perfect for fans of Jandy Nelson and Nicola Yoon, about falling in love and finding who you are--all at the same time.

Critic reviews
Gorgeous and deeply thoughtful meditation on love and what it means to truly live with your heart wide open. I loved it.
Bliss and Solomon’s story is a gentle, poetic, and poignant love letter to young love, Black love, familial love, love of place, and love of life itself. Nobody writes like Renée Watson.
Deftly crafted, big-hearted, beautiful, funny, honest, and inspiring.
A powerful look at a young Black girl’s journey to self-acceptance in all facets of her life, and a beautiful example of how communities become family.
A delightful, joyous coming-of-age tale that features dynamic characters and a sweet romance, and it doesn’t shy away from weighty social and political topics, all the while spinning the magic of Black Girl Joy.
Teen and tween readers questioning their own identities and places in the world should connect with Watson's meaningful social and environmental themes. . . . [A] warm and hopeful story.
Watson’s deft ability to write characters that are relatable yet flawed offers readers a nuanced, non-saccharine love story.
This title sends the necessary message that sometimes it’s okay if the person you save is yourself.
A highly needed work for the #MeToo movement. . . . Watson and Hagan do not disappoint in this powerful story of two girls who take a stand against injustice while learning how to navigate a world that seeks to silence them.
A manifesto for budding feminists . . . An inspiring look at two strong-willed teens growing into even stronger young women ready to use their voices and take on the world.
