Alikay Woodโs Thirty to Sixty Days is a hilarious and irreverent coming-of-age YA novel in which three teens facing uncertain futures embark on a madcap adventure that challenges each of their identities.
Hattie Larken doesnโt know if sheโs ever really been real in her life. A compulsive liar with a quick-witted response to everything, sheโs willing to do whatever it takes to just skate through the rest of high school until she can graduate and escape it all: the mind-numbing monotony of this town, the guilt of everything that happened with her dad, and the debt her momโs dealing with that she feels responsible for.
But then Hattie finds out sheโs dying. Not like in that overdramatic way that people sometimes say theyโre dying. Sheโs literally dying. Apparently, she was exposed to a parasite because of a mistake her momโs company made. (And no, the irony of that all is not lost on Hattie . . .) And sheโs not the only one. Two other kids from her class have also been exposed to the parasite: Carmen, who seems to be totally perfect, with the class presidency, a loving family, and a totally beautiful girlfriend; and Albie, a quiet kid who survived childhood cancer only to deal with this, which feels like an incredibly cruel joke from the universe.
Hattie, Albie, and Carmen are told they only have 30 to 60 days to live. But instead of just sitting around a hospital and waiting to die, the three kids form an unlikely alliance to live the last days of their lives out to the fullest. Stealing and sailing a boat to Miami? Absolutely. Adopting the turtle that a random college student hands to them? Of courseโthey couldnโt leave Scooter to fend for himself! Sneaking into the sold-out music festival in town? You better believe it! And if Hattie just happens to find a way to raise some money for her mom through filming all their misadventuresโwell, sheโs not going to not do that then.
Snarky, bold, and deeply real, Thirty to Sixty Days examines the ways that three teens grapple with the thread of imminent deathโand how each ultimately discovers what life ought to be.

Alikay Wood was once described by a wedding DJ as โfive feet of fury.โ When sheโs not shredding up dance floors, sheโs writing books about friendship and โunlikeableโ girls. She lives in California and is probably currently avoiding writing by rollerblading, crushing trivia competitions, or camping. Thirty to Sixty Days is her first book.
