Senior year is over, and Lucy has the perfect way to celebrate: tonight, she's going to find Shadow, the mysterious graffiti artist whose work appears all over the city. He's out there somewhere—spraying color, spraying birds and blue sky on the night—and Lucy knows a guy who paints like Shadow is someone she could fall for. Really fall for. Instead, Lucy's stuck at a party with Ed, the guy she's managed to avoid since the most awkward date of her life. But when Ed tells her he knows where to find Shadow, they're suddenly on an all-night search around the city. And what Lucy can't see is the one thing that's right before her eyes.
It's a well known fact, that I fell in love with Crowley's storytelling via Words in Deep Blue. After that magnificent experience, I wanted to read her backlist, and I confess, I was not disappointed.
This story had beautiful writing, great characters, tons of humor, and lots of heart. This story was sort of a romance, I guess, but I was captivated by the friendships and the family relationships which were also present. In addition, many of the characters were at a crossroads, where they had to made BIG, life changing decisions.
I have to thank Cath Crowley for the amazing night she allowed me to spend with Ed, Lucy, and the rest of their crew. I was fun, enlightening, and very memorable.
