Summary
A summarized list of core teenage experiences Nicole had missed out on so far: trips to the mall, sleepovers, going to a school dance, playing sports, passing notes in class, sneaking out to go to parties, and so on. Now that she was finally about to be eighteen, she was determined not to miss out on anything else.

Once upon a time on the coastal edge of Scotland …Bookmarked by shuyaku
