Dash & Lily meets Ferris Bueller's Day Off in Edward Underhill's new whirlwind rom-com about two queer teens who spend one life-changing day together in New York City. . Abby Akerman believes in the Universe. After all, her Midwest high school marching band is about to perform in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City -- if that's not proof that magical things can happen, what is? New York also happens to be the setting of her favorite romance novel, making it the perfect place for Abby to finally tell her best friend Kat that she's in love with her (and, um, gay) . She's carefully annotated a copy of the book as a gift for Kat, and she's counting on the Universe to provide an Epic Scene worthy of her own rom-com.. Leo Brewer, on the other hand, just wants to get through this trip without falling apart.
About the Author
Edward Underhill grew up in the suburbs of Wisconsin, where he could not walk to anything, which meant he had to make up his own adventures. He began writing (very bad) stories as a kid and wrote his first (also very bad) novel in his teens. He currently lives in California, where by day he writes music (most frequently for cartoons) and by night he writes stories, which aren't as bad as they used to be. As a queer trans man, he is passionate about books where queer and trans kids can find themselves in the pages. If you are one of those kids, he promises there will always be a place for you in his books. Edward's debut novel, ALWAYS THE ALMOST, releases from Wednesday Books/Macmillan on February 14, 2023.
