Joshua Road is the first young adult novel written by Diane Vetter Squires. Her story takes place in the mid-1980s and chronicles the coming-of-age path of Brianna Amatore, a teenaged girl with strong family ties, growing up in a Philadelphia suburb. A focal point of the story is her home, on Joshua Road, where many significant events originate as well as culminate. This story is a call-back to the days when home was more than just a place for teenagers to eat and sleep; where families came together in times of happiness as well as grief; success as well as failure. It is a poignant story of love, loss and fate, and the exploration of the relationships the main character has with her family and friends, as well as herself.
