JENNY HAN × SARAH DESSEN Summer jobs, new friends, broody boys vs golden boys, beach bonfires, first kisses, repeated heartbreaks, & just a *little* bit of angst. Lots can happen between Memorial Day & Labor Day- just ask the teens of Cedar Beach, NJ. #QuestPit #YA #Q

Claire, of course, is stuck working with grumpy yet gorgeous Jake all summer. Ashley's thrilled that the cute boy next door will be in town year-round. Noah frustratingly is falling for his new friend's little sister. How much angst can one summer hold? #questpit #YA #Q

Olivia hit a wall - she's burned-out from online dating and work. Caleb is in a rut - his fiance left him and he wants to leave the city for good. When the two match on a dating app in the beach town they loved as teens, sparks ignite a new future for both. #questpit #A #R #W

Well, I got logged out of my TikTok and can’t seem to get back in, so that’s fun… If anyone wants to follow me along while I work on my books, and catch some mood board-like glimpses into my WIPs, follow me on Instagram - @shayjaffe ✨🫶🏻#WritingCommunity #writerslife

People tend to think of classics as being “boring,” but we wouldn’t keep reading them for hundreds of years if we didn’t love them. Let me introduce you to some FUN classics:

this is so charming and honestly just… smart. teen movies get panned for clearly being written by adults trying to mimic “teen lingo” & this is a wonderfully collaborative solve to that.

there are certain small kindnesses that snag on your heart. a song sent at midnight, an apple on your desk, an outstretched hand. a picture of the moon. it could make you cry, almost. the simple, honey-colored fact that someone is thinking of you when you are not there.
