From Goodreads:
In case you’re wondering, this is not a love story.

My name is Victoria Spring. I like to sleep and I like to blog. Last year – before all that stuff with Charlie and before I had to face the harsh realities of A-Levels and university applications and the fact that one day I really will have to start talking to people – I had friends. Things were very different, I guess, but that’s all over now.

Now there’s Solitaire. And Michael Holden.

I don’t know what Solitaire are trying to do, and I don’t care about Michael Holden.

I really don’t.

This incredible debut novel by outstanding young author Alice Oseman is perfect for fans of John Green, Rainbow Rowell and all unflinchingly honest writers.

I am so excited for this book. With me being a UK blogger I’ve been looking for more UK YA books and this one sounds so good. The cover is beautiful and the blurb doesn’t really give a whole lot away… and I love that. So many blurbs give away the majority of the story that it feels unnecessary to actually read the book so to have this just hinting a little bit intrigues me. I can’t wait to get my hands on this book.
