Summary:

Born and raised in New York City, Ramona Keene dreamt of attending film school and traveling to Paris. Instead, she works at her uncles' bookstore, and all her adventures are between the covers of secondhand books. But the new landlord plans to triple the rent, something her uncles can't afford. To earn the money to help save the bookstore, Romy applies for a job at ExLibris Expeditions, a company that re-creates literary journeys. Her assignment: retrace Phileas Fogg's journey from Jules Verne's Around the World in Eighty Days and plan a suitable, contemporary adventure for a client. Sticking to the original route means no commercial aircraft permitted, and she's got a lot less to work with than eighty days. Worse yet, she's got competition-- and Dominic Madison turns out to be the nephew of her family's worst enemy. Can Romy win the race and circle the globe in time to save the bookstore? -- adapted from back cover
