Here Goes Nothing
A fun yet thought-provoking modern reimagining of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing.
Eighteen-year-old Beatrice has never been a fan of her neighbor Bennie, but when Beatrice’s beloved younger sister starts dating one of Bennie’s closest friends, Beatrice is drawn into their social circle. As Beatrice wrestles with increasingly confusing feelings for Bennie, her usually close relationship with her sister is fraying, her grief over their mother’s death is simmering in the background, and she’s overwhelmed by looming senior-year decisions about what she wants to do with her life. But after a crisis arises, Beatrice must figure out how to process past traumas and open up to the possibilities of the future.

Reviews
Kaitlyn Hill
“The Shakespeare retelling that YA romance dreams are made of, staying true to the original story while somehow feeling like its own singularly modern, refreshingly relevant journey through complex friendships, sisterhood, queer identity, and unexpected love.” —Kaitlyn Hill, author of Wild About You
Kelsey Rodkey
“Perfect for people who’ve felt stuck on the outside, Emma Ohland’s Here Goes Nothing embraces the difficulty in finding and accepting yourself. A heartfelt and queer retelling full of characters to love.” —Kelsey Rodkey, author of Last Chance Books
