Saving June involves a cross-country road trip! When asked to come up with some ideas for top ten lists I knew I wanted to know what Hannah Harrington’s road trip playlist would look like! I am so glad that she picked that topic!
Top Ten Road Trip Songs
In no particular order:
1) Fastball – “The Way”
2) America – “Ventura Highway”
3) The Rolling Stones – “Satisfaction”
4) Johnny Cash – “I’ve Been Everywhere”
5) Foghat – “Slow Ride”
6) Wilson Phillips – “Hold On”
7) Florence and the Machine – “Dog Days Are Over”
8) The Killers – “All These Things I’ve Done”
9) Tom Petty – “American Girl”
10) The Proclaimers – “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)”
You definitely want songs you can jam out to in an embarrassing fashion and that will keep you pumped up! These are all ones I can’t help but sing at the top of my lungs when I’m listening to them.
Thanks so much Hannah! I would so let you control the radio on a road trip! I remember listening to my Wilson Phillips cassette so much it wore out! So readers… what are your must listen to songs on a road trip?!?
About Saving June:
‘If she’d waited less than two weeks, she’d be June who died in June. But I guess my sister didn’t consider that.’
Harper Scott’s older sister has always been the perfect one so when June takes her own life a week before her high school graduation, sixteen-year-old Harper is devastated. Everyone’s sorry, but no one can explain why.
When her divorcing parents decide to split her sister’s ashes into his-and-her urns, Harper takes matters into her own hands. She’ll steal the ashes and drive cross-country with her best friend, Laney, to the one place June always dreamed of going California.
Enter Jake Tolan. He’s a boy with a bad attitude, a classic-rock obsession and nothing in common with Harper’s sister. But Jake had a connection with June, and when he insists on joining them, Harper’s just desperate enough to let him. With his alternately charming and infuriating demeanour and his belief that music can see you through anything, he might be exactly what she needs.
Except June wasn’t the only one hiding something. Jake’s keeping a secret that has the power to turn Harper’s life upside down again.
