Meet June Parker. She works for L.A. Rideshare, adores her rent-stabilized apartment in Santa Monica, and struggles with losing a few pesky pounds.
But June’s life is about to change.
After a dark turn of events involving Weight Watchers, a chili recipe and a car accident in which her passenger, Marissa, dies, June finds herself in possession of a list, “20 Things to Do By My 25th Birthday.” Even though they barely knew each other, June is compelled by both guilt and a desire to set things right to finish the list for Marissa.
The tasks before her range from inspiring (Run a 5K), to daring (Go braless), to near-impossible (Change someone’s life), and as June races to achieve each goal before the deadline, she learns more about her own life than she ever bargained for.

Quando peguei o livro na biblioteca, achei que ia ser mais um daqueles coisas que eu quero fazer no meu leito de morte, e apesar de eu gostar desse tipo de livros, já é um tópico meio batido.
Mas a idéia a autora, pra mim, foi super inovadora. Uma pessoa, tentando completar a lista de outra pessoa. O jeito que a história se desenvolve foi perfeito, esperava um final diferente, mas mesmo assim, ótimo livro.
