From the #1 New York Times bestselling co-author of Five Feet Apart comes a gripping new romance, perfect for fans of The Perks of Being a Wallflower and Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda.
Emily and her mum were always lucky.
But Emily’s mum’s luck ran out three years ago when she succumbed to cancer,
and nothing has felt right since.
Now, the summer before her senior year, things are worse than ever – Emily has
wrecked things with her boyfriend, Matt, and her dad is selling the house she
grew up in and giving her mum’s belongings away. The only person she has to
talk to is Blake, a girl she barely knows since she and her dad moved back to
town five seconds ago.
But that’s when Emily finds the list – her mum’s senior year summer bucket list
– buried in the back of her closet. When Blake suggests that Emily take it on
as a challenge, the two set off on a journey to tick each box and help Emily
face her fears over losing her connection to her mum. As she starts to feel
closer to her mother, so too does Emily’s bond with Blake deepen into something
she wasn’t expecting.
And suddenly Emily must face another fear: accepting the secret part of herself
she never got a chance to share with the person who knew her best.
A captivating, heartfelt love story about learning who you are, and who
you love, when the person you’ve always shared yourself with is gone.
Praise for THE LUCKY LIST:
“A countdown to finishing the list before a
class trip keeps the pacing solid, and an entertaining unraveling of
connections to her parents’ pasts adds nice depth. Told in Emily’s first-person
narration, the breezy tale explores the theme of learning to live life without
holding back, as Emily both questions her sexuality and learns to heal from her
grief….A truly charming summer romp.” — Kirkus Reviews

My Review: Reading this was simple the scene starts out as a simple game of bingo and her lucky quarter along with her mom’s lucky card. I found this story rather sad, but filled with memories. It was full of emotions and you can sense Emily’s thought just as anyone who might of loss someone close. I saw Blake was a breath of sunshine for Emily who tried to make her happy even when she was not really feeling it herself. The Lucky List deals with some heavy issues but I loved how it was written. It was beautiful.
