Us in the Bright Lights by Zanni L. Arnot (Lothian) PB RRP $19.99 ISBN 9780734424501
Sometimes,
you have to lose everything to find yourself. This is a novel about ending up in the
most unexpected places, with the most unlikely people, and discovering it's
exactly where you're meant to be.
Stevie Jones has
always lived in the comfort of her best friend Bella's glorious shadow.
But when Bella's suddenly gone, her absence casts a harsh light on everything
Stevie's not. Who even is she without her best friend?
Unmoored, Stevie
moves to Europe for a year in a desperate attempt to fulfil Bella's bucket
list. As she checks off Bella's list, she begins to figure out who she is: the
things she doesn't like, and the things she does . . . which would all be
terrific, if one of those things wasn't way-off-limits: Theodore, Bella's
long-time crush.
As her time
overseas draws painfully to a close, Stevie must decide whether to return to
her old life or stay in the big, bright light of the new world she's building.
Us in the Bright Lights is a romantic novel about a girl who loses everything
but finds herself in the process. Perfect for fans of Nina Kenwood and Biffy
James. It reminds readers that there is no right way to grieve a loved one.
Stevie's journey to self-discovery is rich with complexity and shows how home
can be in more than one place.
