barbrokatrin's review against another edition
4.0
I was a lot excited and a little scared to read this because I’ve been real disappointed with lesfic lately but I didn’t need to worry. Siera Maley delivers! She’s one of my favorite lesfic authors and I’ve been (im)patiently waiting for her new novel and I love it. The build up, the feelings, the characters. I can feel the emotions. I haven’t ever been disappointed with Siera Maley and her writing and I’m (im)patiently waiting for her next book.
My only “problem” with her books is that I wish they were a little longer.
I will admit that I’ve kept checking Maley’s profile in the last years to see when she was publishing a new book. As said, one if my favorite lesfic authors. She never disappoints me

I loved this book. I read it all in 2 days. Zoey's and Chelsea's relationship was really well developed, despite being based on lies, and I enjoyed watching it develop despite knowing it was going to all blow up in their faces at the end.
Skylar is horrible, btw. I'm glad Zoey ditched her at the end. I hated everytime Cole was on the page as well.
I'm also so happy Zoey and Chelsea communicated openly, and they gave themselves another shot! Yes!
The whole subplot with Zoey's homophobic parents was difficult to read, but I think it was handled well. I'm glad her dad made an effort with her. Ngl I almost teared up when she was kicked out and Chelsea took her to her house and Chelsea's mum was crying and said she could stay as long as she wanted. Sorry about my language, but parents are supposed to love their kids unconditionally, so fuck those who make their kids feel worthless because they don't match whatever image they have of their child in their heads.
I really enjoyed this book. Definitely recommend it!

someone described this book as john tucker must die but sapphic, and i'm pleased to say it did not disappoint. i would've liked to see zoey beat the shit out of skylar though, but maybe that's just me

i have some conflicted feelings about this book but one thing’s for sure: siera maley knows how to write something completely unputdownable.
i hadn’t really heard much about her books before reading dating sarah cooper 3 days ago, but if you’re like me and have exhausted all 3 kelly quindlen books and are looking for something in the same vein as her writing (i.e. wholly consuming with big romance/friendship dynamics), definitely give siera’s books a try! (that’s coming from me, who has read exactly 2 of them)
