Amy Curry thinks her life sucks. Her mom decides to move from California to Connecticut to start anew - just in time for Amy's senior year. Her dad recently died in a car accident. So Amy embarks on a road trip to escape from it all, driving cross-country from the home she's always known toward her new life. Joining Amy on the road trip is Roger, the son of Amy's mother's old friend. Amy hasn't seen him in years, and she is less than thrilled to be driving across the country with a guy she barely knows. So she's surprised to find that she is developing a crush on him. At the same time, she's coming to terms with her father's death and how to put her own life back together after the accident. Told in traditional narrative as well as scraps from the road - diner napkins, motel receipts, postcards - this is the story of one girl's journey to find herself.

En annorlunda bok som gärna hade fått vara dubbelt så tjock!
Gillar att boken är uppbyggd som en riktig resebok med inklistrade kvitton, anteckningar osv. Det gjorde så att det kändes som att man själv var med i bilen.
Allteftersom får man veta historian bakom anledningen till att Amy inte vill köra bil längre, och det gör också att man vill fortsätta läsa hela tiden för att få veta mer.
Jag tyckte särskilt om delen när hon träffar sin brorsa och hade gärna sett att den delen varit längre.
En väldigt härlig bok i vilket fall!
