A story of sisterhood, identity, and finding where you belong 💛✨

From award-winning author Elle McNicoll, Keedie is a powerful coming-of-age novel set in Juniper — five years before the events of A Kind of Spark.

As twins Keedie and Nina approach their fourteenth birthday, the bond they once shared begins to shift. While Nina moves in one direction, Keedie finds herself increasingly drawn to her younger sister Addie — quiet, observant, and often misunderstood.

On the surface, Keedie and Addie couldn’t be more different. But beneath it all, they share a deeper connection that others fail to see. As Keedie grows more protective of Addie, she must navigate family dynamics, self-identity, and the challenge of being truly understood in a world that often misunderstands difference.

Honest, heartfelt, and deeply relatable, this story celebrates individuality, neurodiversity, and the strength of sisterhood.
