Description
Elsie has a crush on Ada, the only person in the world who truly understands her.
Unfortunately, they’ve never met in real life and Ada lives an ocean away.
But Elsie has decided it’s now or never to tell Ada how she feels.
That is, until her long-lost best friend Joan walks back into her life.
In a summer of repairing broken connections and building surprising new ones, Elsie realises that she isn’t nearly as alone as she thought.
But now she has a choice to make…
