About this book
Description
Love, Victor is now a major TV series on Dinsey+, set in the world of the hit film Love, Simon
I don't entirely understand how anyone gets a boyfriend. Or a girlfriend. It just seems like the most impossible odds. A perfect alignment of feelings and circumstances . . .
Molly Peskin-Suso knows all about unrequited love. No matter how many times her twin sister, Cassie, tells her to woman up, Molly is always careful. Better to be careful than be hurt.
But when Cassie gets a new girlfriend who comes with a cute hipster-boy sidekick, everything changes. Will is funny, flirtatious and basically the perfect first boyfriend.
There's only one problem: Molly's coworker, Reid: the awkward Tolkien superfan she could never fall for . . . right?
A heartwarming and hilarious story about growing up and learning to be comfortable in your own skin.
