1 1 y separately published work icon Wrong Answers Only Tobias Madden , Melbourne : Penguin , 2024 27374270 2024 single work novel young adult

'Marco's always done the right thing. But now it's time for wrong answers only.

'Marco should be at university, studying biomedicine. Instead, he's been sent to live on a cruise ship in the Mediterranean with his estranged uncle, all because of a 'blip' everyone else is convinced was a panic attack. (Which it most definitely was not.)

'And even though Marco's trip is supposed to provide answers - about himself, about his family - all he finds on board the Ocean Melody are more and more questions.

'But then his best friend CeCe proposes a new plan- for someone who has always done the right thing, in every possible way, it's time for Marco to get a few things wrong. And hooking up with a hot dancer from the ship is only the beginning . . .' (Publication summary)

'Tobias Madden delivers another swoonworthy YA rom com winner with his second novel!

'Noah is in love with his online best friend. Which is a huge problem, for the following reasons-

'1. His crush has no idea.
2. Noah only knows him as his gaming avatar.
3. There's zero chance they'll ever meet in real life.

'So, when Noah sees an opportunity to secretly meet his crush, he takes it.

'Even though he'll have to join the cast of a local production of Chicago with his self-obsessed mother. Even though he'll need to lie to his best (and only) friend. And even though he'll have to sing and dance in front of actual people.

'Because love is worth the risk. And, really, what could possibly go wrong?' (Publication summary)
