I just really like how Robbie Couch writes YA lit. His characters are flawed and frustrating, they make mistakes, they love hard, and they just feel like a sweet warm hug. I can’t believe I’m done with his backlist and have nothing to look forward to now!! 

This book is legally blonde inspired and it’s just fun and funny. I liked the overall story, and Blaine grew a lot over the course of the novel. I loved the supportive friend group and family. Also Danny and Blaine’s romance was cute. Their shy flirting was adorable. Michael Crouch again crushed the audio - he’s amazing with YA narration! 

Robbie - thank you for these characters. They make me laugh and tear up, sigh and shake my head. The best books are the ones that make you feel. I’m so grateful to read your stories!
