For seventeen-year-old Flannery Fields, the only respite from the
plaid-skirted mean girls at Sacred Heart High School at is her
beloved teacher Miss Sweeney's AP English class. But when Miss
Sweeney doesn't show up to teach Flannery's favourite book,
Wuthering Heights, leaving behind her purse, Flannery knows
something is wrong. The police are called, and Flannery gives them
everything - except Miss Sweeney's copy of Wuthering Heights. This
she holds onto. And good thing she does, because when she opens it,
it has somehow transformed into Miss Sweeney's real-time diary. It
seems Miss Sweeney is in New York City - and she's in trouble. So
Flannery does something very unFlannery-like: she skips school and
sets out for Manhattan, with the book as her guide. But as soon as
she arrives, she meets a boy named Heath. Heath is British, on a
gap year, incredibly smart - yet he's never heard of Albert
Einstein or Anne Frank. In fact, Flannery can't help thinking that
he seems to have stepped from the pages of Bronte's novel. Could it
be? With inimitable wit and heart, Mary O'Connell has crafted a
love letter to reading, to the books that make us who we are. Dear
Reader, charming and heartbreaking, is a novel about finding your
people, on the page in the world.
