Daphne and Oliver have almost nothing in common....
Seventeen-year-old Daphne Bowman, a bookish drama nerd in public school,
might never have crossed paths with Oliver, the popular, outgoing mascot
for his private school's football team, but one event has bound them
inextricably. Daphne's older sister, Emily, and Oliver's older brother,
Jason, who were high school sweethearts, committed suicide together
seven years earlier.
When Daphne uncovers Emily and Jason's bucket list - a list comprised of
their "Top Ten" places to visit before they die - she knows she has to
tell someone. The one person who might actually get what she's going
through and who might not think it's silly that she wants to complete
the list is also someone she's never spoken to - Oliver Pagano. Throwing
caution to the wind, Daphne sends Oliver a Facebook message that will
come to change the course of both of their senior years - and maybe
their entire lives.

You tells the story of two people who, in searching for what they've
lost, end up finding what they never knew they needed - each other.
