Starring My Dead Best Friend.
USA 2010, 264 pp., hardbound, € 14.39
For months, Cass Meyer
has heard her best friend,
Julia, a wannabe Broadway
composer, whispering
about atop-secret project.
Then Julia is killed in a
car accident, and Julia‘s
drama friends make it
their mission to bring the
project - a musical entitled
»Totally Sweet Ninja Death
Squad« - to fruition. But Cass isn‘t one of the
drama people. She can‘t take a summer of swallowing
her pride and painting sets, and she won‘t
spend long hours with Heather Galloway, the
girl who rudely questioned Cass‘s sexuality all
through middle school and who has somehow
landed the starring role. So Cass decides to
follow her original plan for a cross-country road
trip with Julia. Even if she has a touring bike
instead of a driver‘s license, and even if Julia‘s
ashes are coming along in Tupperware. When
Cass returns in August she‘s not the same
person. And neither is Heather.

Zoe Baxter has spent
ten years trying to get

into love. When Zoe allows herself to start
