Don T Fail Me Now

Satisfactory Essays

As someone who is unable to drive, and who has friends that pretty much all refuse to learn to drive the only way I can enjoy a road trip is vicariously through a good road trip novel. Don’t Fail Me Now by Una LaMarche is a stellar example of a road trip novel that balances a serious story with moments of light humour. I loved both of Una LaMarche’s previous YA novels, but it was the synopsis of Don’t Fail Me Now that compelled me to pick it up. Don’t Fail Me Now follows Michelle and her little siblings Cass and Denny who live in urban Baltimore; they are struggling to make ends meet as their mother is in jail. As for Michelle’s father, well that’s where her connection to another Leah is as they share the same biological father. Buck Devereaux
