Most Likely by Sarah Watson

5.0

This is the perfect gift for someone just graduating high school or even just someone who feels uncomfy about figuring out their life right now.
When I heard that this was from the creator of The Bold Type but took place in suburban Ohio I had a hard time picturing what that sort of dynamic would be like within the confines of the suburbs. It plays really well. This book really balances the stress and hopelessness that comes with graduating from high school without the grades or money or life experience that it takes to get into a top college with the hope of living a bigger life and having supportive friends.
It touches on a lot of really important topics and was also a really fun, relatable read. It’s uplifting in the same realistic way that The Bold Type is.
I really hope that Sarah Watson keeps writing more of this series and I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next.
Also, I’ve seen other reviews compare this to Parks and Rec, and that’s pretty accurate as well. It’s a YA take on local government and friendship.
