A private list, shared complications

Ivy Fitzgerald’s attention is divided between caring for her struggling father and finishing a secret bucket list. Her plans shift when B, the mysterious student at her small New Hampshire high school, joins her. Their efforts to complete the list bring both characters’ hidden struggles and secrets into the story, while Ivy’s search for support expands beyond the two of them. The coming-of-age premise connects personal challenges at home and school with the possibility of finding friends and family who can help.

Book overview

How do you win a battle against yourself?

For Ivy Fitzgerald the answer is simple: You don't.

Meet Ivy Fitzgerald, a teenage girl from a small town in New Hampshire who attends an even smaller high school. While her classmates focus on gossip and grades, Ivy only cares about two things: taking care of her struggling father and completing her secret bucket list. Forced to battle her internal Mental Monster alone, Ivy embarks on a mission to finish her list before it's too late. However, her solo adventure could be derailed when the school's most mysterious student, B, gives her no choice but to let him tag along.

As Ivy and B work together to complete the list, Ivy discovers that she is not the only one keeping secrets. B has his own secrets to hide. However, once their secrets are exposed, things will never be the same at Lisbon Regional School. Join Ivy as she finds friends and family to help her fight her mental monster. Fans of John Green's "Turtles All the Way Down" will come for the honest depiction of internal struggles, and fans of Nina Lacour's "We Are Okay" will love the emotional journey of finding one's true family.
