★ "A powerful contemporary coming-of-age story."―Kirkus Reviews, starred review
★ "Relatable [and] vivid.” ―Booklist, starred review
"An accessible, heartwarming story." ―Publisher's Weekly
It's finally summer―heck, yeah!
With eigth grade done, Elio Solis plans to lock in on his gaming and show the fellas what he's got.
Celi Rivera and her bestie are headed to Hawaii to sun, skate, and search content for her channel.
But those dreams end when a catfishing incident rocks their Oakland community. Suddenly, parents are nosing in posts, taking phones, and laying down lectures about screen-time safety and well-being. Suddenly, Celi and Elio find themselves sent to rural Mexico, without internet, electricity, or even running water save for a dying stream that could wipe out the whole pueblo in the coming summer rains.
Helping curanderas in a healing clinic... carting sticks to rehabilitate the arroyo... turn summer dreams to misery!
But day by day, in nature, beauty, and community, with crushes blooming, can they find their way to each other―and slowly back to themselves?
