'A remarkable debut about the long and winding road of adolescence.
Hilarious journeys and heartbreaking choices.' STEPHEN
CHBOSKY, author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Veronica never thought she'd want to fail a test -
until she finds herself staring at a plastic stick with two solid
pink lines. She's pregnant.
With her college future fading before her eyes, Ronnie has to
make a tough choice - an abortion. But the closest clinic is
over nine hundred miles away. Faced with a treacherous boyfriend
and no car, Ronnie turns to the one person who won't judge
her: her ex-best friend Bailey.
What could go wrong? Not much, apart from stolen cars, crazed
ex-boyfriends, aliens, and the pain and heartbreak of a broken relationship
...
In this warm and darkly funny road trip story, Veronica
and Bailey drive a thousand miles to an out-of-state abortion clinic
- rediscovering their friendship in the process.
A sharply-observed, bittersweet road-trip story for our
times; perfect for fans of Booksmart and Juno.
Female friendship is at the heart of the story: Veronica
teams up with her ex-best pal and social misfit, Bailey.
A YA Thelma-and-Louise story with a strong social and
reproductive justice theme.
