In this Australian import, Sibylla is dreading her high school's nine-week-long outdoor education program. So is Lou, a transfer student who's mourning the death of her soulmate, Fred (from Six Impossible Things, in which Lou and Fred fell in love). The girls are drawn together when Sib's geeky friend Michael befriends Lou. The alternating narrators' honesty and humor will keep readers engrossed.
