Are We There Yet?
Are We There Yet? | David Levithan
4 posts | 8 read | 6 to read
Sixteen-year-old Elijah is completely mellow and his 23-year-old brother Danny is completely not, so its no wonder they can barely tolerate one another. So what better way to repair their broken relationship than to trick them into taking a trip to Italy together? Soon, though, their parents perfect solution has become Danny and Elijahs nightmare as theyre forced to spend countless hours together. But then Elijah meets Julia, and soon the brothers arent together nearly as much. And then Julia meets Danny and soon all three of them are in a mixed-up, turned-around, never-what-you-expect world of brothers, Italy, and love. Are We There Yet? isnt about a place on a map, its about a place in the heart. David Levithan has written a magical story of a journey definitely worth taking. From the Hardcover edition.

“The Slurpees don‘t taste the same as they used to. Maybe that‘s because it‘s a foreign country. Maybe it‘s because nothing ever tastes the same as it did when you where ten. Or maybe the 7-Eleven syrup has changed.”

I love this quote from the tagged book because it‘s true. The Clearly Canadian is actually still exactly the way I remember it. The Dunkaroos are really more for nostalgia, I was never a huge fan (I preferred Dizzy Grizzlies).

Biverson12 Symphony bars with toffee and almonds are my favorite! Definitely nostalgic 😊 3y
Sparklemn Clearly Canadian is my favorite! Very difficult to find. 😋 3y
ErikaB @Biverson12 I could only find them in XL or giant sizes but I‘m not complaining! 3y

ErikaB @Sparklemn I‘m in Northern Illinois and have so far only tracked them down at Kroger or Hy-Vee, neither of which is in my town. It becomes a bit of a quest to find them! 3y
Sparklemn @erikab We have Hy-Vee in MInnesota but I‘ve never been there. Now I have a reason! 3y
ErikaB @Sparklemn I love Hy-Vee! Unfortunately the closest one to me is about 45 minutes away (or 30, depending on who‘s driving). I always find it‘s worth the trip. 3y

BookishFeminist 😂😂 just how are you doing this? I thought I was doing pretty well for my 150 book goal by staying on track, lol. 8y
Sue @BookishFeminist 😂Essentially I have no life 😂😂😂 In reality, I don't watch TV and I don't have a partner to please. Generally by the time the weekend comes around I'm too exhausted to do anything but read. Audiobooks also help, I can listen as I drive, clean, walk, etc. And I've drastically reduced the time I spend on social media. Except for here of course 😊 8y

I #canteven capture the how much detail @LectricSheep put into wrapping these gifts! The packages are so beautiful that I almost don't want to unwrap them in the morning. Sweet dreams, Litsy 💤 #secretsantagoespostal

LectricSheep I'm glad they made it relatively unscathed! Phew! 8y
