Stačí jen přesvědčit obyvatele cizí planety, na které je zakázáno vyvolávat jakékoli emoce včetně smíchu, že lidé jsou naprosto mírumilovní, neškodní a užiteční tvorové a že si zaslouží dostat ještě šanci. I když si svoji vlastní planetu zničili. Přesně tohle dostanou za úkol Lani s rodinou. A nemají na to úplně moc času: týden. Proti nim stojí odhodlaní obyvatelé cizí planety, kteří jenom VYPADAJÍ jako komáři. A rozhodně se nehodlají smát. Ani zvednout koutek. To bude zábava! Vtipné a mrazivě trefné podobenství o nejpalčivějších problémech současnosti: migraci, fake news, mediální manipulaci a šíření nenávisti.

The internationally bestselling love story from Nicola Yoon, author of Everything, Everything. Soon to be a major film starring Yara Shahidi and Charles Melton! Natasha: I'm a girl who believes in science and facts. Not fate. Not destiny. Or dreams that will never come true. I'm definitely not the kind of girl who meets a cute boy on a crowded New York City street and falls in love with him. Not when my family is twelve hours away from being deported to Jamaica. Falling in love with him won't be my story. Daniel: I've always been the good son, the good student, living up to my parents' high expectations. Never the poet. Or the dreamer. But when I see her, I forget about all that. Something about Natasha makes me think that fate has something much more extraordinary in store--for both of us. The Universe: Every moment in our lives has brought us to this single moment. A million futures lie before us. Which one will come true?
