Sixteen-year-old Elijah is completely mellow and his 23-year-old brother Danny is completely not, so its no wonder they can barely tolerate one another. So what better way to repair their broken relationship than to trick them into taking a trip to Italy together? Soon, though, their parents perfect solution has become Danny and Elijahs nightmare as theyre forced to spend countless hours together. But then Elijah meets Julia, and soon the brothers arent together nearly as much. And then Julia meets Danny and soon all three of them are in a mixed-up, turned-around, never-what-you-expect world of brothers, Italy, and love. Are We There Yet? isnt about a place on a map, its about a place in the heart. David Levithan has written a magical story of a journey definitely worth taking
