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

 

Join Rachael for her online Launch Party!

 

Ever since losing her mom to cancer Emily’s life hasn’t been the same. The two of them were attached at the hip and considered themselves to be pretty lucky. They even had a lucky coin that they would take with them to the monthly town bingo where they also had a lucky bingo card. Sadly, however, once her mom passed away the luck seemed to pass with her. Now thanks to a huge mistake that Emily made at junior prom she has no boyfriend no friend group and no idea how to spend her summer.

Another piece of bad luck coming Emily’s way is that she and her father have to move. Though they do have some help on that front thanks to her father’s High School best friend moving back to town along with his daughter. While cleaning out her parent’s closet Emily and Blake come across a summer before senior year bucket list that her mother came up with. After some discussion, they decide to tackle a list of their own. Most of the things are from her mom’s list with a couple of exceptions.

I really enjoyed this book! What started for Emily as an excuse to get to know who her mother was, as well as have something to do over the summer actually turned into so much more than that. Whether you have experienced grief yourself or not I suggest you read this book! You will not be sorry!
