Since You’ve Been Gone by Morgan Matson

Since You’ve Been Gone by Morgan Matson is such a fun read. 

Emily’s best friend, Sloane, left suddenly at the beginning of summer without a word. One day, Emily receives a list in the mail from Sloane – a summer bucket list. This wasn’t your standard list, it was full of things to push Emily outside of her comfort zone.

It’s always been Emily and Sloane, a pair, never apart. We follow Emily’s journey of self discovery throughout the summer as she learns to be just ‘Emily’, as she checks off items on the list. She hopes completing all the challenges will bring her closer to finding out what has happened to Sloane.

This is a great summer read. I really enjoyed it and finished it faster than anything else I’ve read recently. I would definitely recommend this is you’re looking for a light hearted YA Contemporary!
