火花在兩位青少年之間迸發,他們在這部令人難忘的出道小說中,努力面對悲傷、愛情與未來,必定能吸引Jandy Nelson與Jennifer E. Smith的書迷。

十八歲的Amelia Griffin對著名的《奧曼編年史》系列著迷,該系列由年輕且隱居的天才作家N. E. Endsley所著。這些書是Amelia的父親離開、家庭破碎後,讓她與摯友Jenna結緣的關鍵。因此,當Amelia和Jenna有機會參加一場有Endsley出席的書展時,Amelia欣喜若狂。這無疑是為她們上大學前的最後一個夏天揭開完美序幕的方式。

然而,轉眼間,一切急轉直下。當Jenna獲得與作者會面的機會,而Amelia卻沒有時,兩人爆發了前所未有的激烈爭吵。在Amelia有機會修補關係之前,Jenna就在一場離奇的車禍中喪生。悲痛欲絕的Amelia,失去了摯友的指引,開始質疑自己為未來規劃的一切。

當一本神秘稀有的《奧曼編年史》精裝版送達時,Amelia堅信它來自Jenna。她循著這本書的線索,來到密西根州一家不起眼卻迷人的書店,震驚地發現自己竟與神秘又英俊的N. E. Endsley本人面對面——他正是Amelia和Jenna爭吵的起因,或許也是解開Jenna一直想告訴她的秘密的關鍵。

Ashley Schumacher這部令人心碎又美麗的出道作品《Amelia Unabridged》,講述了如何在內心找到希望與力量,或許,還能在此過程中,墜入愛河。

Sofia ★★★★★

I’ve been carrying this book around for a week, and it’s one of those stories that stays with you after the last page. The way the two teens’ conversations crackle with unspoken feelings feels so real, and the grief is handled with a gentle hand rather than melodrama. If you loved *The Sky Is Everyw

Ella X. ★★★★★

I cried ugly tears on a crowded bus over the friendship between these teens, and the way their quiet moments of love and grief unfold felt painfully real. This debut packs an emotional punch that hit me right in the chest.

William J. ★★★★★

The way this book handles grief feels so real, not preachy, and the chemistry between the two teens builds slowly enough that you're fully invested by the halfway point. I finished it in two sittings and immediately wanted to reread the last chapter.
