From #1 New York Times bestselling author and rom-com queen Becky Albertalli comes a buoyant new novel about daring to step out of the shadows and into the spotlight in love, life, and, yes, theater. Contrary to popular belief, best friends Kate Garfield and Anderson Walker are not codependent. Carpooling to and from theater rehearsals? Environmentally sound and efficient. Consulting each other on every single life decision? Basic good judgment. Pining for the same guys from afar? Shared crushes are more fun anyway. But when Kate and Andy's latest long-distance crush shows up at their school, everything goes off-script. Matt Olsson is talented and sweet, and Kate likes him. She really likes him. The only problem? So does Anderson. Turns out, communal crushes aren't so fun when real feelings are involved. This one might even bring the curtains down on Kate and Anderson's friendship.Author: Becky AlbertalliPublisher: Balzer & Bray/HarperteenPublished: 04/20/2021Pages: 400Binding Type: HardcoverWeight: 1.00lbsSize: 8.20h x 5.80w x 1.50dISBN: 9780062643834Age Range: 14-UPAccelerated Reader:Reading Level: 4.2Point Value: 11Interest Level: Upper GradeQuiz #/Name: 512649 / Kate in WaitingReview Citation(s): School Library Journal 02/01/2021 pg. 73Bulletin of Ctr for Child Bks 03/01/2021Publishers Weekly 02/15/2021Kirkus Reviews 02/15/2021Horn Book Magazine 03/01/2021 pg. 79Booklist 03/15/2021 pg. 51Shelf Awareness 04/30/2021Hornbook Guide to Children 01/01/2021 - Superior,Well Above Average
