• WLW friends to lovers
• new to college life (freshman)

This one read a little young for me, but I think it's perfect for college-aged people! I think both main characters were well described in terms of their past and how that has affected their relationships (or lack there of). Molly was a bit of a struggle to read as her anxiety is overwhelming (to her), but knowing people who struggle with that level of anxiety I can understand it. The plotline of Alex helping Molly overcome this anxiety to ask out her crush was cute. Overall if you're the right age for this one I think it's generally a cute read, it just wasn't personally a fav for me.

Alex's mom is an alcoholic which is a very constant stressor for her. Molly suffers from some pretty severe social anxiety which she works through the entire book. Molly's mom struggles with internalized racism.

"She gets the girl" is not the book of a lifetime, but it's everything I wanted from it: lighthearted wlw romance. Check out some of the TW either way because if they trigger you, it may not be as light a read as for me. Enjoy!

I enjoyed this. I really like both of the characters and their issues and watching them overcome them, and the fact that it's written by a married couple is adorable.

I was incredibly nervous toward the end because Molly is Alex's only friend. Molly has been reaching out and making friends with a supportive family to fall back on but if they date and it goes bad, she has no one. That stressed me out but having Jim step in and her mom in rehab made it better and the finale was just so cute.
