A devastating loss leads to an unexpected road trip in this novel from the author of Moonglass, whose voice Sarah Dessen says “is fresh and wise, all at once.”Hours after her brother’s military funeral, Honor opens the last letter Finn ever sent. In her grief, she interprets his note as a final request and spontaneously decides to go to California to fulfill it. Honor gets as far as the driveway before running into Rusty, Finn’s best friend since third grade and his polar opposite. She hasn’t seen Rusty in ages, but it’s obvious he is as arrogant and stubborn as ever—not to mention drop-dead gorgeous. Despite Honor’s better judgment, the two set off together on a voyage from Texas to California. Along the way, they find small and sometimes surprising ways to ease their shared loss and honor Finn’s memory—but when shocking truths are revealed at the end of the road, will either of them be able to cope with the consequences?

I really enjoy Jessi Kirby's writing. I picked up In Honor because I had read Golden and loved it. While I didn't love this one as much as Golden, I still really liked it. I liked Honor, even if she could be a little annoying and childish at times, and I liked Rusty, even though he could he a little...
I was in the need of something light yesterday, to get me through this head cold I developed. The emotion and all the memories that were told throughout In Honor probably shouldn't be considered "light", but YA contemporaries are my comfort reads, and this one did just that. I really enjoy road trip...
In Honor broke my heart right from the very beginning. Honor and Rusty were so completely broken by Finn’s death that it made me so unbelievably sad for them. Grief and loss is a terrible thing and neither knew what to do with it. Not to mention the fact that there was a lot of resentment between th...
