Description

Dash & Lily meets P.S. I Love You in a life‑affirming rom‑com about seizing your chance and learning to love.

Scream into the void
Do something that scares you
Fall in love . . . ?


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.

'A joyous, swoony road trip that tackles grief, healing and new hope' Wren James, award-winning author of Last Seen Online

'Heartbreaking and uplifting in equal measure, a beautiful story of friendship, loss and healing.' Amy McCaw, author of Mina and the Undead
