How to Get to Rio by Julie Fison | Hardie Grant Publishing

A contemporary pick-a-path series about life, first crushes and friendship, that lets the reader choose how the story goes!

For months Kitty MacLean has been crushing on Rio Sanchez – who is probably the cutest boy in the world. But it looks like she might never get a chance to hang out with him until …

1. Kitty goes camping with her best friends like she promised them, and finds out Rio just happens to be staying not too far away. But should she meet up with him? Or is a grubby camping holiday not the best time to meet up with your mega crush?

2. Kitty breaks her promise to go camping with her besties and goes to Paradise Point with popular-girl Persephone instead. The offer is sweetened with a promise they’ll definitely get to hang out with Rio. But would Kitty really ditch her friends to hang out with a cool girl? And will Rio even like Kitty?

Follow your heart right to the end, or go back and choose all over again.

Should Kitty pursue the boy she’s been crushing on, or put her friendships first? It’s up to you to choose her fate in this lively pick-a-path-book about life, first crushes and friendship.
