Acclaimed writer Margo Rabb's Kissing in America is "a wonderful novel about friendship, love, travel, life, hope, poetry, intelligence, and the inner lives of girls," raves internationally bestselling author Elizabeth Gilbert (Eat, Pray, Love). In the two years since her father died, sixteen-year-old Eva has found comfort in reading romance novels—118 of them, to be exact—to dull the pain of her loss that's still so present. Her romantic fantasies become a reality when she meets Will, who understands Eva's grief. Unfortunately, after Eva falls head over heels for him, he picks up and moves to California without any warning. Not wanting to lose the only person who has been able to pull her out of sadness—and, perhaps, her shot at real love—Eva and her best friend, Annie, concoct a plan to travel to the West Coast to see Will again. As they road trip across America, Eva and Annie confront the complex truth about love.In this honest and emotional journey that National Book Award finalist Sara Zarr calls "gorgeous, funny, and joyous," readers will experience the highs of infatuation and the lows of heartache as Eva contends with love in all its forms.

Dedication

Contents

Part One: Love and Grief

I hope your first kiss went a little better than mine did

I sang in my chains like the sea

Truth

Funny grief

I dwell in possibility

Mad love

I measure every grief

At his touch, the scabs would fall away

Wild nights

Part Two: The Smartest Girl in America

47,500,000 ways to get to California when you have no money

If Marie Curie would do it, you should too

Reel life

Because my mother is about as likely to let us take the bus to California as she is to let us travel by donkey

Part Three: It feels so old a pain

Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love

You can’t keep weaving all day and undoing it all through the night

There is no music like this without real grief

We flee to the Cleve

Those who are dead are never gone

Love and other diseases

O Love, O fire

Part Four: Time does not bring relief

Real

To touch him again in this life

Landings

Help me to shatter this darkness

Part Five: A common language

Kissing in America

Cowboys on fire

Horses have loved before as I love now

Power

Let’s rodeo!

Lies

Might I but moor tonight in thee

Patchwork America

Honey, he ain’t calling

Part Six: One Art

The questions

Feast on your life

A good world

A good death

The art of losing

One peace

Worn down love

Trinkets

End of the line

Maps

Sleeping beauties

Stage 4

Light, love, life all tumbled

One Art

Part Seven: The Truth about Love

Reality

To live is to build a ship and a harbor at the same time

And to finish the harbor long after the ship has gone down

The harbor

Caesura

Part Eight: I Remember You

From the same source

Part Nine: Mad Love

Kaddish

To leap
