Love Is for Losers by Wibke Brueggemann
5.0
Quite honestly one of the funniest books I've read. It gave me major Georgia Nicholson vibes from the get go, but ended up being so much more than that.
Wibke has created the most amazing group of characters, and I love how they each have their own personalities and are important to Phoebe's overall plot. Phoebe herself is just so effortlessly funny - a true testament to Wibke's amazing writing. I found myself cackling so many times.
I love love loved the format of diary entries - so readable and a sneaky tactic to make you not want to stop reading! Also loved the little hashtag titles.
I think my favourite thing (after Pat) was how things were just normalised within the book. Sex, being queer, relationships with slight age gaps (adult characters - don't worry!). It was really really fresh to see that within a YA book, and it gave me hope!
