The Upside of Unrequited by Becky Albertalli

Molly Peskin Suso has always been close with her twin sister Cassie. However, when Cassie gets a girlfriend, Molly starts to feel lonely and left out. Cassie comes up with a plan and Molly ends up getting caught in a love triangle. In normal circumstances this wouldn’t sound too bad, but Molly has a fear of rejection to the point where she has had exactly twenty-six crushes but kept them all low-key.

A cute, light novel with lots of diversity. I would recommend this for any romance readers out there. I absolutely loved Molly’s personality; it was relatable, funny and at the same time I loved the fierce, opinionated aspect. If you enjoyed Simonverse by Becky Albertalli, this is the second book in the series (not required to read the first book to understand this one).
