Emergency Contact

book cover


This book was labeled as young adult fiction, but I genuinely think anyone who likes stories about college-aged people learning about themselves and connections with others. The story was told from the alternating perspectives. One belonged to college freshman Penny, who is quirky, but not in an annoying manic pixie dream girl way. Her voice was fresh, funny, and real. The other perspective belonged to 21 year old Sam. His voice was distinct from Penny's, and I enjoyed following their individual struggles, as well as the unique ways their stories intertwine. This book was a great beach read that I highly recommend to people of all ages.

In this case, the only thing that I didn't like in this story was that kids were blaming each other about missing snowflake cookie. But finally the mystery was solved and everybody was very happy.
