Dear Universe
A wildly witty yet deeply profound chronicle of teenage anxiety and yearning, perfect for fans of Jesse Andrews and Robyn Schneider – in paperback.
It’s senior year, and Chamomile Myles has whiplash from traveling between her two universes: school (the relentless countdown to prom, torturous college applications, and the mindless march toward an uncertain future) and home, where she wrestles a slow, bitter battle with her father’s terminal illness. Enter Brendan, a man-bun-and tutu-wearing hospital volunteer with a penchant for absurdity, who strides boldly between her worlds–and helps her open up a new road between them.
Dear Universe is the dazzling follow-up to Florence Gonsalves’s debut, Love and Other Carnivorous Plants, hailed by School Library Journal as “a must-have sharp, powerful, and witty immersion into the complexities of . . . mental health.”

From NOVL Nation
“I was drawn in from the beginning and could not put this one down. The characters are relatable, real, and well-written. They face challenges that many deal with each day from heartbreak to homework. A heartfelt read that is sure to stay with you long after reading.”
—Patti, Lovely Loveday
“Though Chamomile guards her inner-thoughts from the rest of the world, each page is a record of her anxieties. Readers get to see her mind unrestrained as it grapples with family, friendship, love, growing up, and more… Essentially, Cham didn’t feel like a character, she felt like a friend that was letting someone in for the first time, with as many emotions as that entails.”
—Madison, @spellbindingstories
