This was really endearing. Nailed voice. Got all the angst of the age, including crushes and navigating friendships. Gracie's relationship with her parents added depth and poignancy. Perfect upper MG, low YA.

Theresa Milstein and 1 other person liked Melissa Sarno's review of Well, That Was Awkward: "This book really surprised me with its depth. Not only is it a fun, romantic, funny, witty, read but also really poignant when it comes to the main character's relationship with her parents. "

First I started the book, got annoyed pretty quick and then returned it. But I liked her last book, so I decided if the MC got less spoiled and had better growth. Goo writes sweet reads. I'll be repetitive here to say I loved the dad too.

Snappy and accessible with an important message about toxic friendships. And also about having control over your reactions/how you handle situations. I'll be sharing this wth my students.
