Meg and Linus are best friends going through their senior year
of high school. Meg has two focuses: her heartbreak (her girlfriend dumped her)
and Linus’s love life. Linus is thrilled to have a crush, but is unsure if
Danny likes him back. The chapters alternate perspectives between Meg and Linus.
As they participate in the drama club together things coming to a breaking
point in their friendship.
This is a great super tame high school romance that could be
added to a middle school or high school library. That being said it was very
linear, overly long, and repetitive. I thought that if it was explicitly
spelled yet again, that the main characters liked coffee and star trek, I would
throw the book. I felt like the book would have been great at about 100 pages. As is, I felt like I lived that entire fall semester with the pair, and that it
was pretty boring.
