Review

Kate really doesn't much care for getting to know other people. She's got a big family and her best friend. What more could she need? She'd rather spend her time out on the lake. But this year, her best friend Alana talks her into taking a podcasting class with her, and Kate ends up getting stuck as a co-host for an advice call-in show. Yikes. One of the callers is looking for love advice for his crush, which she just knows is her friend Diego calling about Alana. As the year goes on, Kate and Alana balance keeping secrets and their fiercely loyal friendship.

West has nailed another sweetly romantic story that teens in love with love will love. It's a great female friendship book as well, as both friends end up supporting each other instead of fighting and falling apart.

Overall Book Score: very good
