Description
Falling in love is supposed to hurt. That's what Franny and Sam, two cynical teens raised on tales of heartbreak and loss, have come to understand. But when they fall for each other, they find the reality of love is something else entirely—it’s electrifying, effortless, all-encompassing, and easy. Theirs is a love that can conquer anything... maybe even death.
After a shocking accident ends the couple's life together before it can really begin, Sam finds himself drowning in thoughts of Franny. He simply can't imagine a world without her in it. And soon, he doesn't have to. In a series of vivid lucid dreams that blur the line between reality and fantasy, the two find each other again and vow to never separate. But as time goes on, cracks begin to form in their perfect world, and unsettling truths become harder and harder to ignore.
This heartrending yet life-affirming romance from Disney's Jennifer Lee is paired with breathtaking, career-best art from LeUyen Pham. The result is a sublime YA graphic novel that's poised to become a classic.
