The incomparably funny Amanda Sellet’s Hate to Fake It to You is so much fun to read!  It’s a door-half-open screwball comedy set in Hawaii and starring Libby, a pragmatic yet dreamy waitress and aspiring profile writer who runs a phony influencer account with her best friend from their roach-infested apartment.  When a calculating Gen-Z heiress slides into their DMs and wants to meet (and potentially collab), Libby and friends scramble to keep up the ridiculous charade.  But when opportunity comes knocking, so does the handsome wildlife photographer in (reluctant) cahoots with the media mogul, and Libby can’t help but be herself with him.  With a super unique plot and structure, this romance is a breath of fresh Oahu air!
