Insert all the heart eye emojis because I loved this book.

Now that I’m not a teen, YA is definitely my guilty pleasure. It’s romance guilty pleasure but a little lighter. A real escape from adulting reality. That being said, Kanter still manages to fit quite a bit of life into this one, college applications, losing loved ones, identity struggles, and so much more.

After reading Tweet Cute, I didn’t think I could find another YA book to love in 2020 yet here we are. Books, Cupcakes, Twitter, Blogs, and a touch of Baseball, all rolled into a YA romance. My heart is so content. I miss young romance.

I think the young adults of today’s generation will really enjoy this book. It’s current, it’s fun, it’s emotional, it’s so good.

If you like stories that incorporate messages, notes, tweets you will also love this book!

As soon as I finished reading this book I texted all my YA friends exclaiming that I had just finished another amazing book. This book made me want to scream about books.

I remember my first ARC, and later my first collaboration with an author I love, all thanks to a tweet. I remember my blog finally gaining followers and likes. Nothing beats that feeling and finding a book that articulates that is so unreal.

I highly recommend this to all my fellow YA readers and booknerds. This is another not to be missed 2020 read!

Thank you Netgalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review! I loved this book.

Also… thank you French fries!

5/5

I’m going to start off by saying yes, this book was predictable, but did that stop me from reading it? No, did I still enjoy it? Of course. I love a good love triangle book. there’s just something about them that I love so much. It was a laugh out loud rom – com
Halle is a hilarious character, but she does something awesome. She makes a blog where she makes cupcakes inspired by book covers. She’s only 14 and has this amazing idea. She has to move in with her grandfather after her grandmother passes. She has an alter ego named Kels and she is funny, I like her. There were some moments that she had been through that made me shake my head and say why but that is what made her more intreating to me because I wanted to know what she was going to do next because I never knew.
There is a minor plot twist that makes the book more interesting imo. after I had read “said” part. I couldn’t put the book down. I needed to know what was going to happen.
One if the things that I liked in this book and in any book really is text and email’s that get sent back and forth and the author shows what is being said instead of just saying they texted or emailed. I also liked the character growth that Halle went through

I loved this and was not disappointed!
I love how the love story wasn't all the focus and we got to know her family members quite well.
I also love how inclusive this book is, not shame for being gay.
The writing was perfect for this book. Not childish and I didn't feel like I was reading an adult novel either. I could also feel the main character's anxiety the whole time which is relatable.
