Remind Me How This Ends
Remind Me How This Ends | Gabrielle Tozer
3 posts | 4 read | 3 to read
A boy-meets-girl-again story from the award-winning author of The Intern and Faking It. Ages 14+ It's the summer after high school ends and everyone is moving on. Winning scholarships. Heading to uni. Travelling the world. Everyone except Milo Dark. Milo feels his life is stuck on pause. His girlfriend is 200km away, his mates have bailed for bigger things and he is convinced he's missed the memo reminding him to plan the rest of his life. Then Layla Montgomery barrels back into his world after four years without so much as a text message. As kids, Milo and Layla were family friends who shared everything - hiding out in her tree house, secrets made at midnight, and sunny afternoons at the river. But they haven't spoken since her mum's funeral. Layla's fallen apart since that day. She pushed away her dad, dropped out of school and recently followed her on-again-off-again boyfriend back to town because she has nowhere else to go. Not that she's letting on how tough things have been. What begins as innocent banter between Milo and Layla soon draws them into a tangled mess with a guarantee that someone will get hurt. While it's a summer they'll never forget, is it one they want to remember? A boy-meets-girl-again story from the award-winning author of The Intern and Faking It.

I was expecting the normal “boy meets girl, they fall in love, they fight and break up, they get back together and live happily ever after”, BUT it wasn‘t anything like that. While I loved the fact that it was set in Australia I found that a lot of the Australianness was exaggerated with certain characters. Overall, a surprisingly good book and a really good and unconventional ending.

I made this with #canva for a #loveozyachallenge Instagram challenge, but it sort of fits in perfectly with #literarycrush posts. Milo is a Australian teen boy who is taking a year off before going to university because basically he has no idea what he wants - in life, in love or in work. He's such a real and true representation of boys of this age. I loved how his story developed and where he ends up. It's fabulous writing.

I can't add a lot of these books because they aren't here on #Litsy, but I have read all but two. It's Australia day here today, but there's lots of controversy about celebrating on a day when the colonial British basically invaded. It's getting tricky. But I celebrate with books. These are all excellent examples of #loveozya books, most of them released in March and April. Right. Off to swim. #celebrate #notverypatriotic #compassion
