This is an adorable coming of age LGTBQ+ love story between two college freshmen. Both protagonists are dealing with various challenges from their pasts, and both learn to value themselves for who they truly are rather than who they think they should be.

very predictable, but it was exactly the comfort read I needed 🩷 devoured it in 2 days lol

Love that it takes place in college and that
Molly finds her confidence without needing to change herself.

oh my gosh 😭 literally what.

the way i loved this book, like it's actually not funny. i am a hopeless romantic 100%. i eat up the cute little moments. this book was everything to me. i loved the plot, the characters; EVERYTHING.

i loved how Alex's story was told. I loved the character development. I loved the small, cute, fluffy moments Molly and Alex would have. I loved the plot/trope. I loved the slow burn. i loved this book so much, like actually.

one thing about me is, when i read, i paint a movie in my mind. i feel like i just watched the most cutest and funniest story ever, it's so crazy what your imagination can do.

anyway, if you're a teen or just someone who loves all the cheesy romance books without the spice (tho it had very suggestive moments but only 3 times) I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK

The premise of this story kept me interested the whole time. The characters never felt over-dramatised or fake, I was rooting for them the whole time. I do think the ending felt a little rushed, but I would still recommend this book!

I LOVED this book. It always hits different when I heavily relate to the main character. And the character growth
I KNEW they had to end up together. Like come on. I love the journey to that though. And also expressing their feelings for each other by saying I love you?? So queer coded. 10/10. I love their dynamic and the growth on both parts. I wanted to pull out my hair the way they were both hung up on other girls who weren’t the fantasy they had in their heads. And also Alex saying she wasn’t good enough for Natalie or anyone. Because Natalie really drove home how unloveable she was when really it just seems like she liked being the one that Alex chose at the end of the day. Ugh. What a bitch. The amount of notes I made in the book increased exponentially in the last like 25% of the book hahaha. Accurate

She Gets the Girl is very sweet and really shows the fear and hope that comes from leaving high school and going to college. Some of the plot is rather convenient, but it works out well enough for the genre.

I enjoyed this as a quick read but there wasn't much depth to it and it was frustrating being told everything (Molly is anxious! Alex is standoffish!) rather than being shown.
