Publisher's summary

Ivy K. Harlowe is a lot of things.

She's my best friend. She's the center of attention. She is, without fail, the hottest girl in the room. Anytime. Anyplace.

She has freckles and dimples and bright green eyes, and with someone else's energy she'd be adorable. But there is nothing cute about Ivy. She is ice and hot metal and electricity.

She is the girl who every lesbian wants, but she has never been with the same person twice. She's one-of-a-kind but also predictable, so I will always be Andie, her best friend, never Andie, her girlfriend.

Then she meets Dot, and Ivy does something even I would have never guessed - she sees Dot another day. And another. And another.

Now my world is slowly going up in smoke, and no matter what I do, the flames grow higher. She lit that match without knowing who or what it would burn.

Ivy K. Harlowe is a lot of things. But falling in love wasn't supposed to be one of them...unless it was with me.

A most unusual love story

This such a delicious bit of sadness percolating among such fascinating start-crossed lovers. Andy (Andrea), our ringside narrator is deeply devoted to her wish-she-would-only -love-her friend, acutely insightful and self-effacing, and very funny. Ice Queen Ivy embarks on the most unusual love affair with the hyper-energetic 17-year-old, Dot. Andy’s joy is her family and she has the coolest mom ever. Our loyalty to Andy makes one of the most epic love stories ever so bittersweet. But that's the point. Life happens that way. You have to be open to what it brings. I laughed and cried in equal measure.

Interesting

Well, I'm not a fan of Andie. I can just imagine having a friend like her, yooh I'd run away. Dot is just one of those once-in-a-lifetime kind of girl. Ivy defines the essence of being yourself and not wasting time to try to make others understand it.

overall I did really enjoy this, spoilers ahead

it goes without saying but Lori rings out every scrap of emotion there is in this book, making you feel like everything's happening to you, and there's a lot of emotion here. it's a good book, a good story and that's with me not looking the characters very much.

spoilers
the lessons learned are great ones, and I think it best that some are learned the easy way since they are painful lessons I wish I'd have learned the easy way. ending the book on a hopeful note is great and realistic, much like the book, I'm not knocking that for folks who enjoy or prefer it... I wanted the happily ever after for our main character. I didn't want her to get with ivy, so that was nice, but I wanted the H.E.A. for Andi and Alyssa (the friend who has a crush on her that's obvious in the beginning her name is escaping me but I think that's right). that's not my biggest issue with the book... my biggest issue is that ivy never gets called out for using Andi's unrequited love for her to get what she wants from Andi and then blames Andi for falling for ivy. Andi or one of their friends should have ripped ivy apart for that, but no, she even continues to use Andi for the rest of the book. Andi isn't very likeable but she deserved to be treated better.

Catching ivy outside

Ivy needs her a** beat I take back half of my earlier review. Ivy would have to fight me if I were Andy.

It is amazing!!

I can’t say how I feel after listening to this book.
I am amazed and sad and laughing and crying...
This story gets to how life is how love is how learning life and all in between. Lori prince was,as always amazing.
But Hannah Moskowitz did some amazing writing and lLorie had a great book to read. I do recommend this book like crazy. This will also be the first one I will be gifting also!! Hannah I am so hunting down more of your writings.

To have a love not reciprocated to be the best friend you can ever be.

I CRIED SO HARD!!!

First, I will say that I downloaded this strictly because Lori Prince narrated it. As usual, she was immaculately perfect.
Second, this story turns in a direction I very much disliked. I cried through so much of this listen. I felt so bad for Andie, I felt so angry for Andie, and I just wanted to jump into the book and tell her to get herself out of that situation and stop hurting herself!! Ugh! Anyways, only listen to this if you want to feel the feels, and not in a good way. 😤
