3 posts | 2 read | 4 to read
A fifteen-year-old creates an alter ego to woo his dream girl. Compulsively readable. The New York Times This quirky, flirty, and smart story will appeal to fans of Frank Portmans King Dork, John Greens An Abundance of Katherines, and Rainbow Rowells Eleanor and Park. Its not exactly a love story . . . but its pretty close. Its 1977. Fifteen-year-old Vinnie is recovering from the worst case of acne his dermatologists ever seen. His girl moved to California without saying good-bye. And the ink on his parents divorce papers is barely dry when his mom announces theyre moving from Queens to Long Island. The silver lining? Moving next door to Patsy, everyones dream girl. Not that shed ever notice him. But when Vinnie calls Patsy one night, it leads to a chain of anonymous midnight conversations, and the two develop a surprisingly strong connection despite the lies its built on. But as Vinnie gets to know Patsy in real life, its clear that both identities cant survive. . . . From the Hardcover edition.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Completely different from everything else I read. Yes, this was completely cheesy. But despite that, I absolutely loved this book. I was in the mood for a light, fluffy, cheesy book and that was exactly what I got. I really enjoyed watching this friendship blossom and listening to all of their quirky midnight conversations. It also had a nice message about family. I loved the short chapters, which helped the reading pace move along nicely.
