The Shape of Thunder

 

This was an ok middle grade book about coping with death and tragedy. Cora's sister died in a school shooting in which her friend Quinn's brother was involved. The two haven't talked for a year. But the two decide that perhaps they should time travel to change the circumstances. The characters were likable and overall, the parents and the characters' reaction to the shooting is believable. I like how Quinn still manages to find love for her brother but still can't excuse his behavior. This made it on goodreads best of selection in the middle grade category. It didn't win the prize but I'm going to read more of the books that were nominated.
