Publisher Description
The first time she saw him, she flipped. The first time he saw her, he ran. That was the second grade, but not much has changed by the seventh. She says: “My Bryce. Still walking around with my first kiss.” He says: “It’s been six years of strategic avoidance and social discomfort.” But in the eighth grade everything gets turned upside down. And just as he’s thinking there’s more to her than meets the eye, she’ s thinking that he’s not quite all he seemed.
This is a classic romantic comedy of errors told in alternating chapters by two fresh, funny voices. Wendelin Van Draanen is at her best here with a knockout cast of quirky characters and a hilarious series of misunderstandings and missed opportunities. But underlying the humor are two teens in transition. They are each learning to look beyond the surface of people, both figuring out who they are, who they want to be, and who they want to be with.
Customer Reviews
Loved it
This book was fantastic and I loved the humor. I read this book for school and judged it by its cover expecting it to be boring. By the time the first paragraph of the book ended, I was sucked in by the amazing humor, descriptive dialogue, and the fantastic narrating. I always found Bryce’s parts of the story a bit more interesting than Juli’s but they were both full of heart. This book is definitely recommended.
A very good book!
I would recommend this book to kids about 10-13 years old.
