This surprising retro-speculative romance from Steven Ramirez (author of Tell Me When I'm Dead) finds the son of renowned scientists adrift-and caught up in science-fiction and horror scenarios-after his parents' untimely death. What began as a sort of coming-of-age narrative about a college grad in the 1960s quickly evolves into a spirited, genre-crossing story that will keep readers riveted until the exciting conclusion. -BookLife Let's Get Lost relies on science instead of magic as its driving force to invigorating effect. And the prose is elegant yet understated, featuring rich narrative flourishes, dry humor, and period-specific details. The narrative arc is at once surprising and satisfying, fulfilling the expectations set up early in the story but taking several unexpected turns. Cliffhangers are used to great effect, lending the tale a note of urgency. Let's Get Lost is a playful, charming fairy-tale romance novel that is elevated by the creative risks it takes. -Forward Clarion Reviews Author Steven Ramirez has crafted a rollercoaster of emotions, blending elements of romance, suspense, and existential reflection in a well-balanced narrative that gives both intellectual and emotional stimulation in equal measure. Adam's cleverly mirrored journey from heartbreak to self-discovery is both relatable and inspiring, resonating with anyone who has grappled with life's uncertainties but giving that ever-present sense of hope that humanity often clings to. Overall, Let's Get Lost is a captivating tale that I would recommend to fans of accomplished romantic dramas everywhere. -Readers' Favorite
