Love and Other Perishable Items by Laura Buzo

While slowly attempting to move past a painful break-up, 21-year-old Chris searches for the perfect woman. Young Amelia hopes to fill the position but she is only fifteen. The two friends seem to be compatible in so many ways, but the large gap in age is unavoidable. Can love conquer all for Amelia and Chris?

Reminiscent of John Green's writings, this coming of age story reveals the sometimes heartbreaking reality of first loves. Beautiful!
