Description
This is more than one story, more than one Now. But I’ll tell it as best I can.
Me? I’m Jude – like the Patron Saint of lost causes.
Him? He’s Novo. Like nothing on earth. Literally.
In the beginning, before Novo showed up, my mum and me moved to the seaside. Then the first of July, 11.34am. Novo arrived. I was like an atom in his orbit. Alone with him, feeling the pull. Suddenly in the moment, in the Now.
Then a terrible, unthinkable Now. One that could tear my family apart. But Nows can be undone, rewritten, changed.
Goodbye to life as I know it.
And Hello Now…
From Guardian-prize-winning author Jenny Valentine, this is a stunningly written exploration of what it means to live and love in the moment that quite literally transcends logic and time.

A lyrical poetry story about letting go. About love and loss. About living for the moment, but knowing when to think ahead.
Jude’s Mum has left yet another boyfriend and uprooted herself and Jude to a faraway town near the sea. On the very first day, whilst supposed to be unpacking, Jude sees a vision and follows her heart. She knows Novo is unlike all other boys, yet is happy to be led by her heart not her head. In the short time she is with Novo, Jude experiences life for probably the first time. But when it comes to a choice and knowing what is ‘Forever’, Jude knows what she has to do.
In this book the impossible happens and is impossible to describe as it’s the writing that makes it such an immersive page turner.
