I just finished today. I really liked this book. A good book about a girl coming into her own.
Sounds really good. I'll have to order it.
I finally got around to read this book last year and I loved it. Morgan Matson is now on my favorite contemporary YA authors! The book was funny, sweet and thought provoking. I like the take on Sloane's and Emily's friendship and how Emily came onto her own person during the book while trying to find her friend and accomplish her tasks. The romance was cute and Frank was so likable! Their romance was slowly build and not the insta-love kind and he helped Emily overcome a lot.
It was Sloane who yanked Emily out of her shell and made life 100% interesting. But right before what should have been the most epic summer, Sloane just…disappears. All she leaves behind is a to-do list.
On it, thirteen Sloane-inspired tasks that Emily would normally never try. But what if they could bring her best friend back?
Apple picking at night? Okay, easy enough.
Dance until dawn? Sure. Why not?
Kiss a stranger? Um...
Emily now has this unexpected summer, and the help of Frank Porter (totally unexpected), to check things off Sloane's list. Who knows what she’ll find?
Go skinny-dipping? Wait...what?
