Summary from Goodreads:
It’s been so long since Auden slept at night. Ever since her parents’ divorce—or since the fighting started. Now she has the chance to spend a carefree summer with her dad and his new family in the charming beach town where they live.

A job in a clothes boutique introduces Auden to the world of girls: their talk, their friendship, their crushes. She missed out on all that, too busy being the perfect daughter to her demanding mother. Then she meets Eli, an intriguing loner and a fellow insomniac who becomes her guide to the nocturnal world of the town. Together they embark on parallel quests: for Auden, to experience the carefree teenage life she’s been denied; for Eli, to come to terms with the guilt he feels for the death of a friend.

In her signature pitch-perfect style, Sarah Dessen explores the hearts of two lonely people learning to connect.

And here's my teaser:

"I wondered if emotions were like menstrual cycles, if you got enough women together. Give it time, and everyone was crying."

-Auden, p.49 ALONG FOR THE RIDE by Sarah Dessen

I'm really liking this book and I'm so excited to see how Auden and her relationship with her dad and stepmom will turn out. Most especially her relationship with brothers Eli and Jake.

Do you have a teaser today? =)
