This was silly fun, but Bratz/fashion dolls did not deserve the stray criticism they got here! 

Everything about those dolls and

Kennedy

felt so... 2010's feminism.

Quick, easy, light read. Closed door romance with fake dating trope. And a realllly sappy ending.

“What was I allergic to? I was allergic to disappointment. I was allergic to betrayal. I was allergic to friendship. To hope. To optimism. To life, to work, to humanity in general.

And so I just answered with, ‘I’m allergic to everything,’ and I walked out of the garage.”

Hannah is very squish (and the best kind of petty)

Kelly, Doc, and Connie are also squish.

But Jack—Jack Cinnamon-Roll Stapleton—is THE squishiest. Find me an H more babie than this mf. You can’t.

This was so fun!! I’ve been reading a lot of heavy stuff the last few months, and this book was such a breath of fresh air. The writing was super funny and I felt like I was flying through it. If you’re a romantic comedy fan, this is a great one!
