EMERGENCY CONTACT - Mary H.K. Choi

~ Trade Paperback

On her way to college in Austen, Texas to study creative writing, Penny Lee is happy to put seventy-nine miles (and a million light years) away from everything she can't wait to leave behind.  When she meets stuck-in-a-rut Sam, it's less of a meet-cute and more like a collision of awkwardness, but soon the two become digitally inseparable, sharing their deepest anxieties and secret dreams without all the humiliating weirdness . . . 

A compulsively readable novel, Emergency Contact celebrates young love in all of its awkward glory as its main characters emerge from their shells to risk an intimate relationship.

“Smart and funny, with characters so real and vulnerable, you want to send them care packages.” -- Rainbow Rowell, bestselling author of Eleanor & Park, FanGirl, and Carry On
