The Wonder of Us
The Wonder of Us | Kim Culbertson
2 posts | 3 read
Riya and Abby are: Best friends. Complete opposites. Living on different continents. Currently mad at each other. About to travel around Europe. Riya moved to Berlin, Germany, with her family for junior year, while Abby stayed behind in their small California town. They thought it would be easy to keep up their friendship-it's only a year and they've been best friends since preschool. But instead, they ended up fighting and not being there for the other. So Riya proposes an epic adventure to fix their friendship. Two weeks, six countries, unimaginable fun. But two small catches: They haven't talked in weeks. They've both been keeping secrets. Can Riya and Abby find their way back to each other among lush countrysides and dazzling cities, or does growing up mean growing apart?

Pickpick

Kim Culbertson‘s contemporary YA novel is a believable look at teenage friendship and how it changes as people grow and seek out new experiences and new people and although I could have done without the obligatory romance element (which never convinced me) and the European tour element is a bit hokey, I did for the most part believe in Abby and Riya and I liked how Culbertson doesn‘t offer pat resolutions to her characters‘ issues.
