For tough girl George Warren (real name: Frances, but nobody calls her that), senior year was supposed to be about partying with her tight-knit group of friends and piecing together scholarships and financial aid so she can move away from her stifling small town.
Unfortunately, life’s a bad writer, and her senior year is anything but what she imagined. It’s the year an injury puts George’s father out of work, causing the family to fall on hard times. It’s the year a huge fight with her best friend causes an irreparable rift in George’s social circle. It’s the year George realizes her dreams of going away to college might now be out of reach.
But it’s also the year that George meets Francis, an older guy who shares her name, talent for sarcastic bantering, and interest in poetry. In him, George — the queen of catch-and-release — finally finds someone she wants to hold onto. She tells no one and falls hard and recklessly in love. And in doing so, George nearly loses everything — herself included — in secret, and completely alone.
As an extra, exciting bonus, Harper Collins has been kind enough to offer readers the opportunity to win advance reader copies of Here So Far Away! This contest is open to residents of Canada and the prizes will be distributed once ARCs become available. Please fill out the Rafflecopter form below to enter!
