Jessica: One of my absolute favorite romance books is ACT YOUR AGE, EVE BROWN, so I was very, very, very much looking forward to reading HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS AND UNFAIRLY CUTE– so yes, same, Crystal. Speaking of the cover, what are your thoughts about the use of illustration and the colors? There were probably hearts dancing above my head when I saw her name on the cover image. or just enough to spark a whole new kind of relationship?Ĭrystal: I don’t know about you all, but I have read quite a few of Talia Hibbert’s adult romances and have really enjoyed them so I was very excited to see that she was trying out writing for young adults.

And as this adventure brings them closer together, they begin to remember the good bits of their history. So when Celine signs up for a survival course in the woods, she’s surprised to find Brad right beside her.įorced to work as a team for the chance to win a grand prize, these two teens must trudge through not just mud and dirt but their messy past. These days, there’s nothing between them other than petty insults and academic rivalry. Which is why Brad abandoned her for the in-crowd years ago. Social media followers eat up her takes on everything from UFOs to holiday overconsumption-yet, she’s still not cool enough for the popular kids’ table. except the ones he shares with his ex-best friend, Celine.Ĭeline Bangura is conspiracy-theory-obsessed. He’s a star football player, manages his OCD well (enough), and comes out on top in all his classes. Publisher’s summary: Bradley Graeme is pretty much perfect. If you haven’t had a chance to read it yet, we didn’t reveal any major plot twists, but you may want to skip this post until you read do get to finish reading. If you’ve read along, please share your thoughts.
