Book Description:
“For Macallan and Levi, it was friends at first sight. Everyone says guys and girls can’t be just friends, but these two are. They hang out after school, share tons of inside jokes, their families are super close, and Levi even starts dating one of Macallan’s friends. They are platonic and happy that way.
Eventually they realize they’re best friends — which wouldn’t be so bad if they didn’t keep getting in each other’s way. Guys won’t ask Macallan out because they think she’s with Levi, and Levi spends too much time joking around with Macallan, and maybe not enough time with his date. They can’t help but wonder . . . are they more than friends or are they better off without making it even more complicated?
From romantic comedy superstar Elizabeth Eulberg comes a fresh, fun examination of a question for the ages: Can guys and girls ever really be just friends? Or are they always one fight away from not speaking again — and one kiss away from true love?”
Book Review:
It’s the story of the girl/boy next door. Although predictable at times and super frustrating at others (how can you be so daft, characters!?!), it’s a very cute romance that teens and adults can enjoy. It examines the many faces of romance and the many reactions we can have to it, from fear to denial to acceptance. With some other great messages included (don’t bully!), this novel is one that I would definitely recommend. It’s not earth-shattering, but it’s great for a quick read.
