| Publisher Description: A gorgeous and heartrending novel about love, family, and faith, perfect for fans of Laura Ruby, John Corey Whaley, and Jandy Nelson. Marlena Oliveira has--mysteriously, miraculously--been given the power to heal all kinds of ailments. People around the world believe she is a saint. But it all comes at a price. Because of her power, she'll never be able to live a normal life. And the older she gets, the more trapped she feels. Then she meets Finn, a boy who makes her want to fall in love. For the first time, she begins to doubt her power--and herself. Is her gift worth all she must give up to keep it? And who would--or could--she be without it? "I couldn't put it down--The Healer is a tonic."--Gregory Maguire, New York Times bestselling author of Wicked and Hiddensee |
