Both of them have no idea what to do after high school ends. Joshua is so relaxed, he’s almost horizontal. Crowds frighten her she suffers from panic attacks and is afraid she will never live up to her potential. Sophia is brilliant at science and maths but finds people challenging. Sophia and Joshua are in their final year of high school and although Joshua has been romanticising her since 7th grade, Sophia has never even noticed him until he performs some spectacular magic tricks to impress her. Her third novel is a quirky romance set in Melbourne, written in the alternating voices of a 17-year-old math genius and a magic-obsessed slacker.
