Die Romane von Kasie West sind Bücher, die ich mir als Teenager in den frühen 2000ern gewünscht hätte! Auch dieser Roman ist wieder zuckersüß und einfach eine fluffige Geschichte, die man zwischendurch genießen kann. Mehr dazu aber in meinem Monatsrückblick https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXvorKXOtkk&list=PLMHgQHBz0XfslILAABkOBlwqdwB5OauDL&index=6

This was a short, but sweet and fun read! Gia is a very relatable character and easy to like as a protagonist as well. Her character growth throught the book was also very well written, you could see she was trying to do better, even though she kept the charade about Bradley/fill-in Bradley, afraid of losing her best friends. Now let's talk about Hayden. I NEED A HAYDEN IN MY LIFE, OMG HE'S ADORABLE! From the moment he stepped into prom with Gia and gave her his smoky look I was hooked and I immediately wantend them together. The other characters were very likable as well, except for Jules and Drew, who were MAJOR D-bags (in Jules' case, a major BITCH). Also, Gia's friends were a little bit annoying. I mean, even though they said they didn't, they DID doubted Gia when she told them about Bradley (the real one). And after the whole thing blew up, they choose Jules over their best friend since childhood. I mean, how can you believe someone you met like a year ago and choose them over your best friend, the girl you've been friends with and trusted since you were a child? That makes zero sense to me, but okay. That was one of the reasons this book was not a 5 stars. The second reason was the ending, that I felt was too abrupt. We didn't get closure about some stuff, it was left wide open, like you would turn the page and there would be a new chapter waiting for you. Instead, there was the aknowledgements. But I liked this well enough and I got so into it that I finished the book in one day. I may read other books by Kasie West.
