Description
Marco's always done the right thing. But now it's time for wrong answers only.
Marco should be at university, studying biomedicine. Instead, he's been sent to live on a cruise ship in the Mediterranean with his estranged uncle, all because of a 'blip' everyone else is convinced was a panic attack. (Which it most definitely was not.)
And even though Marco's trip is supposed to provide answers—about himself, about his family—all he finds on board the Ocean Melody are more and more questions.
But then his best friend CeCe proposes a new plan—for someone who has always done the right thing, in every possible way, it's time for Marco to get a few things wrong. And hooking up with a hot dancer from the ship is only the beginning...
Wrong Answers Only shines. It is a wonderfully funny and heartfelt novel that is also intensely, relatably human. JENNIFER NIVEN, #1 New York Times bestselling author of All the Bright Places
