A FEW THOUGHTS . . .
Excellent. Truly excellent.
I closed this book and then spent 30 minutes raving about it to my husband. I just didn’t want it to end! I wanted the story to continue on forever!
Jessie, the main character, is so heartbreakingly lost you just want to jump into the book and give her a hug!
She takes you on this journey through her heartache and anger, but also through her learning how to heal and forgive.
And the great mystery (Who is SN?!) will have you grasping desperately at anything you think could possibly be a clue, causing your guesses to change again and again.
Julie Buxbaum’s writing is incredible! She has truly perfected the mind and emotions of a high school girl. And she added just the right amount of angst. You feel the weight of every emotion coupled with enough lightness so it doesn’t feel draining.
Julie Buxbaum is a new go-to writer for me. I can’t wait to dive into more of her books!
SYNOPSIS:
A New York Times Bestseller
What if the person you need the most is someone you’ve never met?
Funny and romantic, this tug-at-your-heartstrings contemporary YA debut is perfect for readers of Rainbow Rowell, Jennifer Niven, and E. Lockhart.
Everything about Jessie is wrong. At least, that’s what it feels like during her first week as a junior at her new ultra-intimidating prep school in Los Angeles. It’s been barely two years since her mother’s death, and because her father eloped with a woman he met online, Jessie has been forced to move across the country to live with her stepmonster and her pretentious teenage son.
Just when she’s thinking about hightailing it back to Chicago, she gets an email from a person calling themselves Somebody/Nobody (SN for short), offering to help her navigate the wilds of Wood Valley High School. Is it an elaborate hoax? Or can she rely on SN for some much-needed help?
In a leap of faith—or an act of complete desperation—Jessie begins to rely on SN, and SN quickly becomes her lifeline and closest ally. Jessie can’t help wanting to meet SN in person. But are some mysteries better left unsolved?
