Picking up whereInvisible Ellenleft off,Becoming Ellenreturns us to the touching, poignant, and compassionate world of Ellen Homes as she learns how to navigate the world she has decided to become a part of.
Ellen Homes is done being invisible. Well, sort of.

Living with her closest friends, Temerity and Justice, has helped her step out of the shell of invisibility she once hid away in. She still seeks refuge in solitary time and observing from afar, but she has pushed herself to open up to others in ways that bring her unexpected happiness.

But when a terrible bus crash upends her normal routine, Ellen finds herself on a whirlwind crusade for the unseen and downtrodden. Only this time, helping others-including two young children with no one else to turn to-will mean facing a pain from her past that she's long tucked away.

'BecomingEllendeftly picks up whereInvisible Ellen,a favorite of mine, leaves off. It's a novel of grace and tenderness, so darkly funny in places it made me laugh out loud; I kept stopping as I read, to hold on to these wonderful characters, to keep them with me just a little longer.' Luanne Rice,New York Times-bestselling author
