The Unlikelies
Release Date: June 6, 2017
Publisher: Little, Brown and Company
Synopsis:
Five teens embark
on
a summer
of
vigilante good samaritanism
in
a novel that's part The
Breakfast Club, part The Disreputable History
of
Frankie Landau-Banks, and utterly
captivating.
Rising high school senior Sadie
is
bracing herself for a long, lonely, and boring summer. But
things take
an
unexpected turn when she steps
in
to
help rescue a baby
in
distress and a video
of
her
good deed goes viral.
Suddenly internet-famous, Sadie's summer changes for the better when she's introduced
to
other "hometown heroes." These five very different teens form
an
unlikely alliance
to
secretly
right local wrongs, but when they try
to
help a heroin-using friend, they get
in
over their heads
and discover that there might
be
truth
in
the saying "no good deed goes unpunished." Can
Sadie and her new friends make
it
through the summer with their
friendships
--
and anonymity
--
intact?
This rich and thought-provoking novel takes
on
timely issues and timeless experiences with a
winning combination
of
romance, humor, and
wisdom.
Carrie Firestone has lived
in
rural, urban, and suburban places, and, while she currently lives
in
the suburbs, she
is
decidedly a CITY person. She loves parties, and all kinds
of
music, and
books about random people doing random things
in
random places. She loves
to
travel with her
husband, and two daughters, Lauren and Emily. When she
isn’t writing, you might find her
reluctantly sharing
her
popcorn
at
the movies, trying
to
get people (or dogs)
to
do
a conga line,
or
adding items
to
her
loose ends list.
