From the beloved author of Tweet Cute comes Emma Lord's You Have a
Match, a hilarious and heartfelt novel of romance, sisterhood, and
friendship. When Abby signs up for a DNA service, it's mainly to
support her friend and secret love interest, Leo. After all, she
knows who she is already: avid photographer, injury-prone tree
climber, best friend to Leo and Connie. When the DNA service
reveals Abby has a secret sister, shimmery-haired Instagram star
Savannah Tully, it's hard to believe they're from the same planet,
never mind the same parents - especially considering Savannah,
queen of green smoothies, is only a year and a half older than Abby
herself. The logical course of action? Meet up at summer camp
(obviously) and figure out why Abby's parents gave Savvy up for
adoption. But there are complications: Savvy is a rigid
rule-follower and total narc. Leo is the camp's co-chef, putting
Abby's growing feelings for him on blast. And her parents have a
secret that threatens to unravel everything. But part of life is
showing up, leaning in, and learning to fit all your awkward pieces
together. Because sometimes, the hardest things can also be the
best ones. 'A YA contemporary set at summer camp? Count us in.' -
