Things I Want to Say

Ellen Lawrence wants to find a place where she fits—after all, she takes up less room now Having shed 100 pounds and (most of) the accompanying self-doubt, she's jetted off to her high-school reunion against the advice of her controlling sister. So why not make the return trip by driving cross-country? In a moving van. With her long-lost best friend Alice… Each with their own baggage, dreaming of a fresh start to a life tainted with secrets and regrets, Ellen and Alice hit the open road. En route to California they meet an Amish runaway, a stray dog, a handsome florist and a surprisingly inept carjacker. And somewhere on that highway, Ellen might just find a place—and a voice—of her own.
