She Drives Me Crazy by Kelly Quindlen

5.0

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS WHAT THE GIRLS WANT!!!!!!!!! THIS IS WHAT THEY WANT!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS THE SAPPHIC LOVE STORY I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR!!!!!!!! I had issues with this but idc this is a five star book anyway. i thought it was so so stupid that like 3+ times charlotte just pulled out her phone and had an incriminating photo/video to sabotage irene or scottie, like once whatever but three times 😭😭😭 r u joking 😭😭😭😭😭😭 I also don't like it in books/movies/tv shows when everyone in the group starts dating someone else in the group and it ends up just being a group of couples. ESPECIALLY when it's in high school, like i feel like the guy friends interchangeable and were only there to be love interests for danielle and honeybell. speaking of honeybell, i LOVED HER omg best side character fr!!! best girl!!!! danielle slayed too. All of the families were sweet and believable apart from the younger sister, can't remember her name but personally i am so so so against the sweet perfect younger sibling who makes cute observations and does nothing wrong? Like that's how you can tell that the author does not have siblings cause why not a single mention of her being annoying sometimes or stuff like that? oh well. Also Irene slayed. I loved how seriously she took cheer and how she was fighting for people to recognise it as a real sport!!! Ugh!!!! Irene!!! Ily!!!!!! Also Scottie getting over her relationship while falling in love with someone new was so so real and upsetting but ah it was perfect!! Really natural progression of her getting over someone!! I thought her and Irene's relationship was so sweet and this did enemies to lover right!! They actually didn't like each other!! They didn't respect each other!! Then!!! Slowly!!!! After being forced together they got to know each other better and slowly started to respect each other more BEFORE they fell in love. Ugh. Also loved all the classic high school rom com mentions, NOTHING I love more than a rom com that simultaneous is all the stereotypes while managing to subvert all the stereotypes at the same time, AHHHHHH I was in a bit of a reading slump but we're back baby!!!! reading era has returned!!! 5 stars!!!
