But How Are You, Really

A five-year college reunion. A chance to go back in time. A chance to get it right. Charlotte Thorne does not want to go back to Hein University. Her life postcollege isn't what she expected--her career in media is stalled, and she's done a terrible job keeping in touch with her queer chosen family. Not to mention she hasn't spoken to Reece Krueger, the hockey player she rebounded with after a traumatic breakup, since she ghosted him on graduation day... But when her demanding boss is invited to give the commencement address at this year's graduation--which falls on the same weekend as her five-year reunion--Charlotte has no choice but to return to campus. The minute she steps foot on Hein property, the past comes crawling back in its glory and millennial cringe: disco parties at the LGBTQIA+ program house, sleeping in a twin XL bed, and stockpiling snacks from the dining hall. And then there's a glowed-up Reece and his irresistible offer to pick up where they left off. Suddenly the weekend Charlotte has dreaded for months feels like an opportunity to go back in time. Determined to have fun with Reece, Charlotte dodges her best friend's questions about her mental health, ignores her boss's constant Slack messages, and tries to avoid thinking about the toxic relationship that almost ruined everything about college. But can she really outrun her past and get her life together in seventy-two hours?
