Nel, Flo, Maggie and Nicole haven’t been friends for years. Caught in the limbo summer between college and uni, each of the girls are at a precipice, deciding the direction of the rest of their lives. That’s when the notifications come through. They'd forgotten all about the time-capsule text messages they sent each other two years ago. Messages full of confessions, feelings and secrets that force them back together again . . . before they break apart.
- Shining a spotlight on themes of body image, sexuality, romance, unhealthy relationships and toxic shock syndrome
- For readers aged 14+, this is coming-of-age contemporary fiction at its finest
- G. Forsyth Read is one half of the dynamic duo, Ally & G – hosts of the social series Backseat Driver, and the Leave a Message podcast
