Ghost selfies, graveyards, Pop Rocks, and a delirious diary pull two futuristic best friends into a mysterious time trip. But what are the pages trying to say?
Welcome to 2078! Hey, watch out for that loop de loop Lamborghini! There's something peculiar about the place--more than just their hydrofruit, holla-grams, ear cams, and crazy traffic patterns.
In the futuristic state of New England, they haven't quite got flying cars off the ground, rain rarely falls and history is taboo, yet a captivating time capsule is unearthed during the last week of school. When Lyr and Innie discover an old diary in the depths, they're soon immersed in a puzzle they're determined to solve, and in more ways than one, it opens a world they never expect!
As they bond with Janet, writer of the teen angst pages, they laugh, cry, and cringe through a rollercoaster of crushes, cliques, popstars, pranks, first love, and an astonishing twist to Janet's mystery. As the enigma runs deeper, cryptic clues leap off the doodled paper. The girls begin to realize the relic isn't just full of adolescent gibberish. Could it possibly hold the key to a paradox bigger than themselves?
A YA mystery/comedy/light fantasy for teens and a nostalgic trip for adults who grew up loving YA novels.
