Kate Sullivan at Delacorte has won North American rights at auction to Tom Ellen and Lucy Ivison's A Totally Awkward Love Story (previously titled Lobsters
in the U.K.). The book, which Sullivan calls The Statistical
Probability of Love at First Sight meets Bridesmaids, is a dual
narrative novel by authors who dated when they were in high school,
about a boy and girl who must navigate social misunderstandings, the
plotting of well-meaning friends, and their own fears about being
virgins forever. It's slated for summer 2016; Allison Hellegers of
Rights People brokered the deal on behalf of Barry Cunningham and Elinor
Bagenal at Chicken House in the U.K.(Blurb via Goodreads)
This sounds really fun - and the cover is adorable! Thanks for putting it on my radar!
