"A little sweet, a little sharp." --Booklist, starred review High school nemeses fall in love in Kelly Quindlen's She Drives Me Crazy, a queer YA rom com perfect for fans of Becky Albertalli and Casey McQuiston. After an embarrassing loss to her ex-girlfriend in their first basketball game of the season, seventeen-year-old Scottie Zajac gets into a fender bender with the worst possible person: her nemesis, Irene Abraham, head cheerleader for the Fighting Reindeer. Irene is as mean as she is beautiful, so Scottie makes a point to keep her distance. When the accident sends Irene's car to the shop for weeks' worth of repairs and the girls are forced to carpool, their rocky start only gets bumpier. But when an opportunity arises for Scottie to get back at her toxic ex--and climb her school's social ladder--she bribes Irene into an elaborate fake- dating scheme that threatens to reveal some very real feelings. From author Kelly Quindlen comes a new laugh-out-loud romp through the ups and downs of teen romance, perfect for fans of Becky Albertalli.Author: Kelly QuindlenPublisher: Roaring Brook PressPublished: 04/20/2021Pages: 304Binding Type: HardcoverWeight: 0.85lbsSize: 8.30h x 5.70w x 1.10dISBN: 9781250209153Age Range: 12-17Accelerated Reader:Reading Level: 4.9Point Value: 10Interest Level: Upper GradeQuiz #/Name: 521531 / She Drives Me CrazyReview Citation(s): Booklist 09/01/2020 pg. 91School Library Journal 02/01/2021 pg. 77Publishers Weekly 03/01/2021Kirkus Reviews 03/01/2021About the AuthorKelly Quindlen is the bestselling author of YA novels She Drives Me Crazy, which was a 2021 Goodreads Choice Awards nominee, and Late to the Party.
