Synopsis

A bighearted novel about falling in love, making a mess, and learning to let go, When You Get the Chance is the next effervescent novel from Emma Lord, New York Times bestselling author of the Reese Witherspoon YA Book Club pick You Have a Match.

Nothing will get in the way of Millie Price’s dream of becoming a Broadway star. Not her lovable but super introverted dad, who raised Millie alone since she was a baby. Not her drama club rival, Oliver, who is the very definition of Simmering Romantic Tension. And not her “Millie Moods,” the feelings of intense emotion that threaten to overwhelm. Millie needs an ally. And when an accidentally left-open browser brings Millie to her dad’s embarrassingly moody LiveJournal from 2003, Millie knows just what to do—find her mom.

But how can you find a new part of your life and expect it to fit into your old one without leaving any marks? And why is it that when you go looking for the past, it somehow keeps bringing you back to what you’ve had all along?

A Macmillan Audio production from Wednesday Books.

4,5/5 Tak, to wybitnie cukierkowa historia. Do bólu przewidywalna, ale co ja poradzę, że tak świetnie się bawię czytając ją! Uwielbiam ten humor, żarty i bohaterów. Uwielbiam, że są świadomi swoich błędów i potrafią za nie przeprosić. Bardzo mocno polecam! PS Są tutaj nawiązania do Tweet Cute (inna k......more

The most impressive information that I've learned from this story is that Manhattan is supposed to be a huge place but, in fact, everyone and everything you know is just a few steps away from you. Millie has decided to find her mother - whom she’s never known - to help her with an evil plan, even tho......more
