Girl rejects love, then finds it in a thrift store. This queer rom-com is HILARIOUS. I laughed hysterically, and loved Phoebe, the main character, despite her spikiness. 


When Phoebe’s best friend ditches her for a boy, she thinks love makes people complete idiots and that everything about it is cringe. But when she gets a job in a thrift store, she meets someone who changes her mind.


If we go by the old saying that “Laughter is the best medicine,” this book is great for anyone looking for some relief from everyday troubles. But it also explores difficult mother-daughter relationships, grief, the stress of getting through GCSEs, and the importance of friendship. 


“My life would be so much easier if I wasn’t this awkward.” 


This book could help if you are struggling with #parents #estrangement #sexualidentity #examstress #GCSE #friendship
