If you are feeling like life is dull and loosing meaning, then this book will change your perspective. Life is full of surprises and One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston gave me something to smile about even if my day wasn't going well. I know it will do the same for you.
A fun idea that libraries could use to implement One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston is to have a person in the community who specialized in self help come and talk about journaling. Each teen could receive their own journal where they could learn to write down and appreciate the small things in life, because without appreciation life starts to loose its magic.
