MY REVIEW
It was an OK book. It helped pass some time for me.I just think so much more could have been done with it.It explores feelings most of us go through from lonliness,embarrassment,to anger and confusion when we are younger and having feelings for others for the first time .Although it's through a girl(Lissa) who is in love with her best friend Kate. One night before school began at a party Kate gets drunk and kisses Lissa. Lissa who isn't drunk has all these feelings because of it. She tries to talk to Kate about it but Kate chooses to ignore her for a couple weeks. Lissa soon realizes she has feelings for a girl and doesn't know if she's gay. And when Kate finally does decide to be friends with Lissa again she refuses to talk about the kiss with her. And it makes it harder on Lissa.
