A review by quicksilvermoon
Kate in Waiting, by Becky Albertalli

3.0

One of my frantic clearance sale buys before Bookworm Bangladesh closed their Airport Road outlet, this one is classic YA. Kate and Anderson are these high-school theatre geeks and best friends who share everything - car rides, secrets, crushes. But when they both fall hard for the same guy, things start to get very awkward. Becky Albertalli is a seasoned YA romcom author, so this has heart, humour, drama and growth in the right amounts. The protagonists behave like they’re in an Elena De Armas novel, but in this case, they are actual teenagers, so it works. That being said, I think I have had my fill of overdramatic white girl theatre kids.
