Bianca's character bugged me a little at first because celebrity-obsessed and all that, but then I realized I was disliking her for stuff I didn't need to and everything was good. I've been out of my tabloid/celebrity phase for so long that I forget I ever had it and that some people are just really into celebrities. Whooooops.

Also, you total...YAY, we are review buddies almost! Also, you totally devoured this, but it's so devourable. It's like a molten lava cake. You can't just STOP. You have to eat it all RIGHT NOW.<br /><br />How did I fail to mention the fake dating trope? Reviewing is hard. Anyway, it's the best of tropes along with hate to love and gender bending. Which is why Coffee Prince is the best thing ever because HELLO ALL THREE TROPES.<br /><br />so yeah, Micah and Lainey are delightfully flawed. I love that I didn't super love them individually, but together OMG THE SHIPPING AND THE FEELS. Also, I like that they're a couple that doesn't "make sense" and though I don't see them together forever they're PERFECT for the last year of high school. Oh also that even when they like each other, they banter and mock one another mercilessly.

I'm all about banter and baking and squeeing, so Lainey sounds perfect.

But your enthusiasm for this ship? And the fact that it sounds super cute? I definitely feel like I'm more convinced to give it a try now. After all, who can resist an adorable ship in an adorable romance? Certainly not this girl ;)Alexa S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13185723439360170259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4932292247636823526.post-8916015402458779752014-05-16T11:05:17.981-04:002014-05-16T11:05:17.981-04:00HE'S A PUNK BAKER???

I can really feel the squee! I'm dying to read this, seriously, the ship sounds so good! And I just really like the sound of Lainey's growth as a character, and her friendship with Bianca and everything.

Here in IL, soccer was in the fall and the spring, so I think Stokes may have it right for soccer in Missouri. :)<br /><br />Great review, Gillian! I'm still reading this book but I agree that Micah and Lainey are absolutely squee-worthy.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17561861156323120664noreply@blogger.com
