(3) YA Seventeen-year-old Grace wants to escape her authoritarian parents to live a big, artistic life; then Gavin, an older, tortured wannabe–rock star, falls for her, and Grace finds a big romance instead. Addressing Gavin directly in an energetic, occasionally scathing second-person voice, Grace recalls the dramatic, damaging relationship that consumed her senior year. This intense, empowering read illuminates the messy, painful romantic dilemmas many teens face.
