I don't know why it took me so long to pick up this book. I'm regretting that. It was a great story about a girl navigating through grief and loss on a road trip with an unexpected friend/love interest. I enjoyed Amy & Roger's trek across America and the things they experience and learned along the way. There were a few important flashbacks that I thought brought a lot to the story. I do have to admit I thought this book ended too soon and I desperately need an epilogue. I also had some iffy feelings about the ages of Amy and Roger.
Graphic: Grief
Moderate: Car accident and Death of parent
