We Are The Goldens, a new book by Dana Reinhardt is a fresh new look at siblings who have a close relationship, growing apart because of the opposite sex. Nell is a freshman at her junior sister Layla's school, when she discovers that Layla is dating her teacher. She spends the entirety of the book trying to figure out how to revive their close relationship, while also trying to explain why dating your teacher is wrong. Add the fact that Nell's best friend, Felix, wants to move from friends zone, his dad had cancer, and her parents are divorced and can't stand being in the same room together, and you have a book that's difficult to put down and would work great for a Prose cutting for Speech.
