'A beautiful, buoyant roadmap to the heart'Jandy Nelson
When Nadia’s best friend Lizzy dies, she leaves her last wish list – 16 wild and random things to do to help her get over her grief. Every item on the list feels impossible without Lizzy, especially finding a way to meet their favourite megastar.Nadia’s quest takes her to America where, grieving and alone, she meets Fran, a boy with a big heart and an empty home. Setting out on the road trip of a lifetime along Route 66, the two make an odd couple. But with fate having thrown them together can they help each other find what they’re looking for?
A beautiful, swooning debut following the road trip of a lifetime for fans of You've Reached Sam, Girl in Pieces and John Green, exploring friendship, grief, freedom, and the rush of first love.
