Celia Gilbert is the perfect friend—loyal, trustworthy, and committed to mending her best friends’ broken hearts.
She’s the reason the trio is spending the summer in Lovesick Falls, the idyllic little town where Touchstone’s sort-of-uncle’s cabin was waiting to be house-sat by three unsupervised (but totally responsible) teenagers.
After all, Celia, Ros, and Touchstone have been best friends since childhood. Sure, Celia is in love with Ros, and Touchstone was once in love with Celia — but that’s the beauty of a place like Lovesick Falls. If you fell in love, you could fall out.
Unless you can change the other person’s mind.
They started the summer closer than ever. Will living together tear them apart?

"With joy, wisdom, and keen insight, Drake weaves an arresting tale of three friends embarking on a summer of adventure. Using her trademark alchemy, Drake transforms Shakespeare's As You Like It into something rich and strange--a witty, profound, and romantic novel, both delightfully resonant with its inspiration, and beautifully new." —Madeline Miller, New York Times bestselling author of Circe and Song of Achilles

“Julia Drake’s mastery of storytelling, prose, and character work cannot be overstated, with Lovesick Falls reaffirming this talent. Feeling effortlessly raw and real, this book exposes the delights and devastations of loving your friends—romantically, platonically, like breathing. An astonishingly tender story of three friends’ life-changing summer that will change many readers’ lives too.”Racquel Marie, award-winning author of Ophelia After All

“I devoured this novel and adored its pie-throwing, costume-designing, language-obsessed protagonist Celia and her two best friends. The lyrical prose casts a spell that sucks you in before you know it and makes you laugh when you’re least expecting it, and all the characters live and breathe and love with brilliant ferocity. Lovesick Falls is an utter delight.” —Robin Talley, New York Times bestselling author of Music From Another World and As I Descended
