We've all woken up on the wrong side of the bed... but have you ever woken up actually stuck to the bed? Fifth grader Masha Sweet wakes one morning to discover that her evil-genius little sister, Sunny, has glued plastic flowers onto Masha's head. When it seems that nothing will get the flowers out, Masha's mother lets her stay home alone for the day--she can't leave the house like this! But when her neighbor, Mrs. Song, has a bike accident, Masha has to rush to the rescue and soon finds herself (and her giant flower bouquet headpiece) at the hospital with an unlikely cast of characters. What starts as a "my sister is a pest!" tale, quickly evolves into a much bigger, zanier adventure. But as the events snowball, Masha keeps one thing in mind: Sunny Sweet is going to be so sorry!

HONORABLE MENTION CRIMEREADS' THE BEST DEBUT NOVELS OF 2022 NAMED ONE OF THE "40 NEW BOOKS FOR SUMMER READING 2021" BY THE MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL A riveting debut novel from an unforgettable new voice that is literary, suspenseful, and a compelling story about identity and how you define “home”. Masha remembers her childhood in the former USSR, but found her life and heart in Israel. Anna was just an infant when her family fled, but yearns to find her roots. When Anna is contacted by a stranger from their homeland and then disappears, Masha is called home to Milwaukee to find her. In 2008, college student Anna feels stuck in Milwaukee, with no real connections and parents who stifle her artistic talents. She is eager to have a life beyond the heartland. When she’s contacted online by a stranger from their homeland—a girl claiming to be her long lost sister—Anna suspects a ruse or an attempt at extortion. But her desperate need to connect with her homeland convinces her to pursue the connection. At the same time, a handsome grifter comes into her life, luring her with the prospect of a nomadic lifestyle. Masha lives in Israel, where she went on Birthright and unexpectedly found home. When Anna disappears without a trace, Masha’s father calls her back to Milwaukee to help find Anna. In her former home, Masha immerses herself in her sister’s life—which forces her to recall the life she, too, had left behind, and to confront her own demons. What she finds in her search for Anna will change her life, and her family, forever.
