Roomies

Roomies follows Elizabeth and Lauren, two high school graduates from different coasts, as they navigate the anxieties and excitement of starting college. Their initial connection through email sets the stage for their shared experience as freshmen roommates at UC-Berkeley. The novel delves into themes of friendship, identity, independence, and the challenges of adjusting to a new environment, while also touching on family dynamics and budding romantic relationships. Parents should be aware that the book contains profanity and sexual references, making it suitable for its intended young adult audience (ages 12-18) who are ready for more mature themes.
