 ilmore Girls meets Jenny Han in this autumnal teen rom-com about a c
 ity girl stuck in a quaint small town who must confront her future and her
  old flame while the town prepares for an annual fall festival.</p>\n<p>El
 lis has a lot of expectations for her senior year\, but moving from Manhat
 tan to Bramble Falls\, Connecticut is not one of them. Yet in the wake of 
 her parents' separation\, that's exactly where she and her mother are head
 ed.</p>\n<p>Bramble Falls might be charming\, but it's also full of distra
 ctions. Like local barista Cooper Barnett\, Ellis's one-time best friend&m
 dash\;and first kiss&mdash\;who has not only majorly glowed up but wants n
 othing to do with Ellis.</p>\n<p>Then there's the Falling Leaves Festival\
 , a month-long tourist attraction run by Ellis's aunt&mdash\;celebrating e
 verything autumn. The festival seems nice and all\, but Ellis doesn't have
  time to be roped into her aunt's enthusiastic planning. Dragged to each e
 vent\, she can't stop bumping into Cooper\, the one person she's hoping to
  avoid.</p>\n<p>But the longer she stays in Bramble Falls\, the harder it 
 is to pretend she's not falling for this town and the people in it. As her
  return to Manhattan gets pushed further and further out\, Ellis is forced
  to confront exactly what she wants for her future&mdash\;and what that me
 ans for her present.</p>\n<p><img src="https://static.libnet.info/frontend
