Suddenly Alice’s quiet, orderly life has turned into an improvised dance of beach trips,
museum visits, and parties. And the worst part? Teddy Taualai is everywhere she turns, and
always a step ahead.
Poppy Nwosu’s pitch-perfect debut novel explores the ever-tricky dance of staying true to
yourself while opening your heart to the queasy, disorienting power of first love as it sweeps you
up and spins you away from your carefully choreographed life
