Meet June Parker. Until the day she offered Marissa, a young woman she had just met, a lift home she thought her life was okay. She had a horrible boss, was battling to lose a few pounds and, sure, finding that special someone was tough, so things weren t exactly fabulous, but she was happy enough. She didn t know that Marissa was going to die and it would be her fault. As she washes away the blood from Marissa s handbag so she can return her belongings to her family, June discovers a list 20 things to do by my 25th birthday. The guilt weighs heavily until a chance meeting six months after Marissa s death finds June committing to finish the list. Some of the tasks aren t too difficult ( Run a 5K ) but others are near-impossible ( Change someone s life ). As June races to achieve each goal before the deadline, she learns a great deal more about herself and her own life than she ever bargained for. Funny, engaging, and ultimately poignant, THE NEXT THING ON MY LIST features a likeable, relatable heroine and a story with plenty of humour and heart. Cheers for Jill Smolinski, who has transcended the chick lit category by giving us a heroine who really tries to make a difference in this world. What a concept! I loved this book its humor and its humanity. You will, too. Jane Heller, author of Some Nerve and Lucky Stars
