“At its core, this is a love story-romantic, familial, and, above all, friend-to-friend-with a unique hook. Keeley, though brash, is a relatable heroine who will speak to teens facing their own times of transition.” * Booklist * “Vivian’s fans won’t be disappointed with this savvy chronicle of a girl finding herself amid the wreckage of her past.” * School Library Journal * “[A] richly layered portrayal of bad boys, girl pranksters, even conspiracies.” * Kirkus Reviews * *“Vivian draws readers into [this] story effortlessly.” * VOYA, Starred Review * *“Keeley is a realistically flawed heroine, and Vivian allows readers to feel intimately connected to the depth of her regret and her urgent need to reconnect with pieces of her past.” * Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW * “A transcendent love story, as profoundly moving as it is fun. This is Siobhan Vivian’s finest hour.” * Stephen Chbosky, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower *
