Visitations by Corey Egbert (December 17)

Growing up, Corey felt safe with his mother, especially when it came to his father, from whom she was divorced. But as Corey got older, his mother became increasingly convinced that God had made Corey his sister’s protector and that their father was the devil. Then Corey’s mother moves him and his sister to the middle of the Nevada desert where they’re on the run from the police and have little to eat. Amid all of this, Corey begins to be visited by a ghost who tells him everything can be different. That he has the power to fight for better, something real, unlike the worlds constructed by his mother. 

This book is inspired by Corey’s experiences in the Mormon church and is a nuanced and thoughtful look at faith, family, memory, and truth. It is a story about belief, mental health, and the sometimes liminal spaces among them all.
