From award-winning, #OwnVoices author Natasha Deen comes a new funny, honest, YA novel following one girl as she tries to win over her crush before she leaves for college.
Letâs be clear. No matter what her older brother, Robby, says, aspiring screenwriter Tuna Rashad is not âstupidstitious.â She is, however, cool with her Caribbean heritage, which means she is always on the lookout for messages from loved ones who have passed on. But ever since Robby became a widower, all he does is hang out at the house, mock Tuna for following in their ancestorsâ traditions, and meddle in her life.Â
Tuna needs to break free from her brotherâs loving but over-bearing ways and get him a life (or at least, get him out of hers!). Based on the signs, her ancestors are on board. They also seem to be on board with helping Tuna win over her crush, Tristan Dangerfield. The only hiccup? She has to do it before leaving for college in the fall. A ticking clock, a grief-stricken brother, and a crush who doesnât believe in signs. What could possibly go wrong? - HARPERCOLL
