We Speak In Storms by Natalie Lund

 

A storm that tore their town apart will bring three troubled teenagers together. 

Truths that needed to be told, a conflict that never was resolved, lives unlived looking for absolution. The ghosts from the past will guide Brenna, Joshua, and Callie if they are willing to listen. 

When another tornado touches Mercer, IL on the anniversary of the tornado that killed over 50 of its residents' those left behind and three teenagers from the new generation can sense a change. The ghosts' whispers become stronger, and a few cross over to find the answers they needed years ago. However, they will help the living more than they can help those gone. 

"Mistakes help us figure out who we are becoming" To move forward you have to accept new realities, stand strong, recognize your own worth, and know that you will be okay. 

Loved this story. Each unique character, the back and forth between present and past, between the living and the dead. Each conclusion leads to a resolution, to peace, to closure.
