I usually really like Emma Lords books and this one was no exception. The protagonists were best friends growing up, but have grown apart. They both get broken up with by their respective partners and their break ups are now viral. What could go wrong if they fake dated? Quite a bit but in the direction you’re hoping for! What I was a fan of was how fleshed out and realistic (well as realistic as possible) the characters felt. However a LOT was left for the ending and for them to untangle themselves from the mess was a journey in itself, which I didn’t quite enjoy as much as the rest of the book! And yet, it was quite fun!

I wanted to like this book so bad but the reason for why they stopped being friends in high school was kind of dumb to me.

And I get the reason for everything 'Annie'  but it started to become a bit excessive to me.

Overall, its a cute book but I wouldn't reread it.

DID NOT FINISH: 57%

About half way through, I just got the ick when they were thinking about being together. The main character uses the word “ache” AGAIN for like the 10th time and I just couldn’t. Suddenly I just found her so annoying that I could fathom finishing the book. Pretty bummed about this because the beginning was fun.
