I really enjoyed A Heavy Dose of Allison Tandy which has so much to offer! Moments of intense heartbreak, paired with laugh-out-loud moments combine to make a compelling and engaging story. Honestly, this feels like a cult classic movie (sixteen candles, breakfast club type) that I will recommend to everyone from now on.

DNF AT 40%. I felt this plot had potential but I personally couldn’t get into it. I wanted more from the book like maybe go more into his pain and how he misses her.

Ugh man I love this book. The amount of times I laughed was insane. The plot was so fun and it kept getting better with each chapter. I have highlighted multiple quotes that were just so funny and random.

i bought this book after searching tiktok for debut novels from new authors, i commented on one of Jeff's post asking for a synopsis and he was fast to reply. i was intrigued so i bought and safe to say i flew through it in a day:)
i really enjoyed it! def a good YA read. alot of the time when you read a teenage books i find that language used is super cringe and i'm just sat there like yikes, however i am SO GLAD it was not the case with this one, Jeff's writing is comedic, enjoyable and flows well!!
we follow our lead Cameron, who had his heart broken by the sweet Alison Tandy, months later she's in a car wreck and ends up in a coma. cameron meanwhile eis prescribed some pills post injury to help with pain...one of the side effects being hallucinations, and i'm sure you can guess who ends up paying him some visits.
bless his heart he keeps trying to convince himself he's over Al, but he's not and she goes about trying to help him move on.

this was a funny read! a pretty cool plot, not your usual YA and for that I did enjoy it, for an easy read, i'd say give it a go:)
