1 post | 1 read
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A whirlwind romance inspired by Ferris Bueller's Day Off about four friends whose hearts are broken and mended over the course of an epic senior skip day--from the bestselling author of The Summer of Broken Rules! Grace, Isa, and Everett used to be an inseparable trio before their love lives became a tangled mess. For starters, Grace is secretly in love with Everett, who used to go out with Isa before breaking her heart in the infamous Freshman Year Fracture. And, oh yeah, no one knows that Isa has been hanging out with James, Grace's brother--and if Grace finds out, it could ruin their friendship. With graduation fast approaching, Grace decides an unsanctioned senior skip day in Philadelphia might be just what they need to fix things. All she has to do is convince Isa to help her kidnap Everett and outmaneuver James, who's certain his sister is up to something. In an epic day that includes racing up the famous Rocky steps, taste-testing Philly's finest cheesesteaks, and even crashing a wedding, their secrets are bound to collide. But can their hearts withstand the wreckage?

While We're Young | K L Walther

If you‘re familiar with FERRIS BUELLER‘S DAY OFF then there‘s a huge amount to enjoy in K. L. Walther‘s YA frothy romantic comedy, which couples a lot of Easter egg references with wry narrative voices and is as much about friendship as romance. There are some fun moments to be had but I did find it difficult to keep the various families straight in my head and I worry that there‘s more here for readers aged 35+ than there are for target teens.
