24 posts | 19 read | 54 to read
Think twice before you make a wish in this imaginative, twisted, and witty new novel from the author of Another Little Piece. When Lennie brings a few jars of her uncles moonshine to Michaela Gordons house party, she has everyone who drinks it make a wish. Its tradition. So is the toast her uncles taught her: May all your wishes come true, or at least just this one. The thing is, those words arent just a tradition. The next morning, every wishno matter how crazycomes true. And most of them turn out bad. But once granted, a wish cant be unmade . . .

“I gave you my name for a reason, Lennie. It might not be worth much now, but someday, someday real soon, I‘m gonna make it so Cash is a name nobody ever forgets. I‘m serious, Lennie. People are gonna remember us.”

Gives new meaning to be careful what you wish for. It's tough been a teen, even tougher if you're not part of the "in" crowd but what happens if you're the one with all the power, and you don't even know it. Meet Lennie and find out.

Alfoster Sounds good! 7y
jpmcwisemorgan @Alfoster It was pretty good, and a quick read. Once I got into it I just kept going. Just what my brain needed on a rainy day. 7y

When Lennie brings a few jars of her uncles‘ moonshine to Michaela's house party, she has everyone who drinks it make a wish. It‘s tradition and so is the toast: “May all your wishes come true, or at least just this one.”

The thing is, those words aren‘t just a tradition. The next morning, every wish—no matter how crazy—comes true. And most of them turn out bad. But once granted, a wish can‘t be unmade.

This book cover is CRAZY pretty! 😱

The stars in the sky are not to be reached for, but to remind us how small we truly are.

"May all your wishes come true, or at least this one."
Murder, moonshine, and magic. They could have just scrawled my name on the cover: this one's for B.
Message received. ??

A fun adventure with some pretty original fantasy concepts. A few bits of over the top wacky silliness, but even those made me laugh. A nice wrap up & ending that had me closing this book with a smile 🤓.

Dark and funny and sexy. Tim Burton-esque
