Ready for the road trip of a lifetime? Heart attacks happen to other people. #thingsIthoughtweretrue When Morgan’s mom gets sick, it’s hard not to panic. Without her mother, she would have no one--until she finds out the dad who walked out on her as a baby isn’t as far away as she thought…. Adam is a stuck-up, uptight jerk. #thingsIthoughtweretrue Now that they have a summer job together, Morgan’s getting to know the real Adam, and he’s actually pretty sweet…in a nerdy-hot kind of way. He even offers to go with her to find her dad. Road trip, anyone? 5000 Twitter followers are all the friends I need. #thingsIthoughtweretrue With Adam in the back seat, a hyper chatterbox named Amy behind the wheel, and plenty of Cheetos to fuel their trip, Morgan feels ready for anything. She’s not expecting a flat tire, a missed ferry, a fake girlfriend…and that these two people she barely knew before the summer started will become the people she can’t imagine living without. Double Rita finalist and young adult novelist Janet Gurtler’s 16 Things I Thought Were True (Sourcebooks Fire, March 2014) is the poignant tale of a teen who is searching for family, learning that friendship can come from the most unexpected places, and discovering that you can’t live your life behind a keyboard forever.
