Summary
Sitting on top of the hill in the park just down the street from his house, Connor Murphy reflects on the three things that meant the most to him.
Books. Weed. And Evan.
He just doesn’t think anyone would miss him if he left all of that behind.
—
Connor Murphy and Evan Hansen have been best friends since they were 5 years old and met on the playground in kindergarten. They’d been through everything together, but Connor can’t bring himself to remember any of that.
All he can think about is how much better Evan’s life — and everyone else’s — would be if he was gone.

Summary
The whole idea of going to therapy seemed ridiculous to Zoe. It wasn’t her that narrowly survived a suicide attempt. It wasn’t her that needed it. It was Connor.
And then she’s told that keeping a journal using the prompts that Dr. Taylor gives her, and she wonders what the point of all of this is. She hardly thought this would help her forgive Connor, and the thought of going through this for no reason was enough to make her head spin.
Zoe immediately begins looking through the prompts. A journal to Connor, the brother who was getting better, but had left her with a million questions, not enough answers, and a broken relationship that she wasn’t always sure could be fixed.
She didn’t think this would go well.

Summary
If there’s a way for Connor to stop time, to live in the little moments of the Summer where Evan is just a short drive away, he hasn’t figured it out yet. Because he knows when he wakes up the next morning he’ll be taking Evan to move into his dorm, and things aren’t going to be like they have been.
And that’s not an easy pill for him to swallow.
—
The end of the Summer arrives and Evan moves into his dorm. Both boys come to terms with long distance.

Summary
The thing is, Zoe doesn’t really remember a life where it wasn’t the younger sibling taking care of the older sibling in their family. It’s something she’s grown accustomed to, something she’s accepted years ago when Connor got bad. Even when he swore he hated her.
And although there are days where she longs for an older brother who is protective of her like her friends have, she knows that when Connor needs her the most, she’s always going to be there.
—
Connor goes through a rough patch when Evan leaves for college. Zoe does her best to help.
