The Fear of Missing Out

A young adult novel from Kate McGovern about a girl with the ultimate case of FOMO-fear of what she'll miss after she dies.

Everyone has a fear of missing out on something-a party, a basketball game, a hangout after school. But what if it's life that you'll be missing out on?

When Astrid learns that her cancer has returned, she hears about a radical technology called cryopreservation that may allow her to have her body frozen until a future time when-and if-a cure is available.

With her boyfriend, Mohit, and her best friend, Chloe, Astrid goes on a road trip in search of that possibility. To see if it's real. To see if it's worth it. For fear of missing out on everything.
