is to fall
cranium over Converse
in dizzy, daydream-worthy
love."
When her parents split, Marcie is dragged from Idaho to a family summerhouse in New Hampshire. She leaves behind her friends, a group of freaks and geeks called the Leftovers, including her emo-rocker boyfriend, and her father. By the time Labor Day rolls around, Marcie suspects this "vacation" has become permanent. She starts at a new school where a cute boy brings her breakfast and a new romance heats up.
But understanding love, especially when you've watched your parents' affections end, is elusive. What does it feel like, really? can you even know it until you've lost it?Aaaw!! I love the title, the cover is also so cute! Plus it's in verse which is always fun.
Love and Leftovers is a beautifully written story of one girl’s journey navigating family, friends, and love, and a compelling and sexy read that teens will gobble up whole.
Another one to add to your, and my, list of 2012 books you have to read! I have a feeling we are going to fall cranium over Converse for this one ♥
