Release Date: December 23, 2014
Summary from Goodreads:
A bright, poignant, and deeply funny autobiographical account of coming of age as an amputee cancer survivor, from Josh Sundquist: Paralympic ski racer, YouTube star, and motivational speaker.
Josh Sundquist only ever had one girlfriend.
For twenty-three hours.
In eighth grade.
Why was Josh still single? To find out, he tracked down the girls he had tried to date and asked them straight up: What went wrong?
The results of Josh's semiscientific, wholly hilarious investigation are captured here. From a disastrous Putt-Putt date involving a backward prosthetic foot, to his introduction to CFD (Close Fast Dancing), to a misguided "grand gesture" at a Miss America pageant, this story is about looking for love--or at least a girlfriend--in all the wrong places.
Why I'm Excited:
I saw this while browsing the pre-orders on my nook and thought it sounded like a cute contemporary read. Not until I was putting this post together did I learn that it's an autobiography! This sounds like the perfect reading for winter break from school, which is when it's released. I'm usually not interested in non-fiction about relationships, but this one has definitely captured my interest it sounds like it's going to be really cute and really heartwarming.
What are you waiting on?

Same here! I don't usually pick up non-fiction but this caught my attention before I even knew it was non-fiction.
