Bookish Boyfriends by Tiffany Schmidt
4.0

This was a super cute read! I found Merrilee to be a great narrator - she was funny, spunky, and impulsive. Her impatience and impulses could get the best of her, though, and she definitely has a lot of reality checks. This is about a girl learning about love and how it's not just what you read in books. It's very much bibliophile bait, but when done well, I have zero problem with that. So this passed that! I found a lot of the sentence structures awkward, so I think it could do with a stronger edit. And I was a little disappointed when the best friend Eliza sort of just disappears from the story for a chunk, but other than that I enjoyed the book!
