The Upside of Unrequited

De: Becky Albertalli

Narrado por: Arielle DeLisle

From the award-winning author of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda comes a funny, authentic novel about sisterhood, love, and identity.

""Heart-fluttering, honest, and hilarious. I can’t stop hugging this book."" (Stephanie Perkins, New York Times bestselling author of Anna and the French Kiss)

""I have such a crush on this book! Not only is this one a must read, but it's a must re-read."" (Julie Murphy, New York Times bestselling author of Dumplin')

Seventeen-year-old Molly Peskin-Suso knows all about unrequited love. No matter how many times her twin sister, Cassie, tells her to woman up, Molly can’t stomach the idea of rejection. So she’s careful. Fat girls always have to be careful.

Then a cute new girl enters Cassie’s orbit, and for the first time ever, Molly’s cynical twin is a lovesick mess. Meanwhile, Molly's totally not dying of loneliness - except for the part where she is. Luckily, Cassie's new girlfriend comes with a cute hipster-boy sidekick. If Molly can win him over, she'll get her first kiss and she'll get her twin back.

There's only one problem: Molly's coworker, Reid. He's a chubby Tolkien superfan with a season pass to the Ren Faire, and there's absolutely no way Molly could fall for him.

Right?

amazeballs

this was a beautiful book thank you for this masterpiece becky albertalli. you are a goddess.

Cute

This is such a cute story filled with layers you wouldn't notice until you really pay attention.

Damn Becky, back at again with the relatable story

Becky kills the relatable story game. She writes characters that I feel like I simultaneously was and want to be friends with. I appreciate that she makes characters that are real and do things in their life instead of being vessels walking to events to move plot along.
You will love Molly. She is me in high school. She claims to be a late bloomer but she certainly had me beat by a few years :)
Becky manages to effortlessly weave diversity and heartache and life through her stories. Nothing is forced.
Please read this book. Becky's books are so important.

great book

loved can't wait to read more . Would totally suggest this book to everyone .

Cute first love story

I wish this book existed when I were in high school. It does a really great job of covering social pressure, families, and just the insecurities of being a teenager. I really appreciated the diversity in families and characters in the book. On top of all of that, it's a really cute first love story.
