A Modern Teenage Love Story

Told through a high-school autobiography assignment, Nora and I Stole a Car follows the life of Oliver Benson, a sixteen-year-old trying to survive school, family, and the mysteries of first love.

Nora and Oliver fall in love over a secret that Nora insisted on telling him. His life changes the night a local hood named VW crashes the birthday party of Nora’s best friend, Cassie.

Acting on impulse, Oliver steals VW’s car to get him and his two punk friends to leave. By the next morning, Nora is impressed, Cassie is thankful, his classmates are shocked and laughing at his courage, and the adults in his life are horrified.

This is a coming-of-age novel filled with unexpected heroes, and the kind of moments that seem enormous when you're sixteen... because they are.

It’s Oliver’s story to tell: the story is about love, loyalty, and those who try to stop him from becoming who he wants to be.
