"A love story to best friends everywhere. Smart, charming, and delightful." ― Kirkus Reviews
It's the summer of 1982, and for Scott and Cath, everything is about to change.
Growing up across the street from each other, Scott and Cath have been best friends for most of their lives. Now they've graduated high school, and Cath is off to college while Scott stays at home trying to get his band off the ground. Neither of them realized that their first year after high school would be so hard.
Fortunately, Scott and Cath still have each other, and it's through their letters that they survive heartache, annoying roommates, family dramas, and the pressure of figuring out what to do with the rest of their lives. And through it all, they realize that the only person they've ever wanted to turn to is each other. But does that mean they should think about being more than friends? One thing is clear, Change is an inescapable part of growing up, and we share unbreakable bonds with the friends who help us navigate it.
This funny, extraordinary, and deeply moving book―set to an awesome '80s soundtrack―captures all the beautiful confusion and emotional intensity we find on the verge of adulthood...and first love.
We Are Still Tornadoes by Michael Kun and Susan Mullen is not to be missed!
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 10 Up—Scott and Cath have been friends since they were children, having grown up across the street from each other. When Cath goes to college and Scott stays home to work at his dad's clothing store, they start writing letters. This novel is set in the 1980s, before the time of texting, FaceTime, and email. During their first year apart, the former neighbors help each other through family crisis, crazy roommates, a budding music career, and more. They quickly realize that despite life's twists and turns, they always have each other. Told via correspondence, this is a funny, warm, and realistic picture of a friendship that remains strong even with distance. The authors' collaboration is seamless, with the characters adding humor to this timely story that delicately examines the emotional turmoil of long-distance friendship. Hysterically funny, Scott, with his overuse of quotation marks and misspellings, in contrast to a more levelheaded Cath, will have readers laughing throughout. While not all of today's teens will comprehend the 1980s music references, they will relate to the deep bond that the two teens share. VERDICT Perfect for the most reluctant of readers, especially young people contemplating life after high school. A must-purchase for public library collections.—Erin Holt, Williamson County Public Library, Franklin, TN
