‘This book was a laugh-out-loud-on-one-page-and-then-cry-on-the-next kind of book for me, a real emotional rollercoaster’
Some books leave a very real mark on you and Since You’ve Been Gone is one of those utterly brilliant books. This is definitely one of my new favourite contemporaries and I cannot believe that it has outrageously taken me this long to read it.
Since You’ve Been Gone is the story of Emily Hughes’ summer. After her best friend, Sloane, disappears with her family and leaves no trace, Emily is left alone and friendless for summer. Without any indication of where she’s gone or when she’ll be back, Sloane mails Emily a list of challenges for her to do during the summer. Emily believes that if she completes this list, Sloane will return home and in her quest to tick every item off, Emily makes some of the best and sweetest friendships of her life. So, without spoiling anything, that is the general plot of this book, although I was originally enticed solely by the beautiful cover!
