- Synopsis
- Perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Sarah Dessen, this romantic and layered Own Voices debut from Abigail Hing Wen is a dazzling, fun-filled romp.&“Our cousins have done this program,&” Sophie whispers. &“Best kept secret. Zero supervision.&” And just like that, Ever Wong&’s summer takes an unexpected turn. Gone is Chien Tan, the strict educational program in Taiwan that Ever was expecting. In its place, she finds Loveboat: a summer-long free-for-all where hookups abound, adults turn a blind eye, and the nightlife runs nonstop. But not every student is quite what they seem:Ever is working toward becoming a doctor but nurses a secret passion for dance.Rick Woo is the Yale-bound child prodigy bane of Ever&’s existence whose perfection hides a secret. Boy-crazy, fashion-obsessed Sophie Ha turns out to have more to her than meets the eye. And under sexy Xavier Yeh&’s shell is buried a shameful truth he&’ll never admit. When these students&’ lives collide, it&’s guaranteed to be a summer Ever will never forget!PRAISE FOR LOVEBOAT, TAIPEI: 'A unique story from an exciting and authentic new voice.' – Sabaa Tahir, #1 New York Times bestselling author of An Ember in the Ashes 'Equal parts surprising, original and intelligent.
