Publisher Description
A passionate, hilarious and heartfelt YA romcom debut full of juicy secrets and leap-off-the-page chemistry about how we choose to live our lives and what it means to live your truth. For fans of To All the Boys I've Loved Before and The Sun is Also a Star.
Quinn keeps lists of everything - from the days she's ugly cried, to "Things That I Would Never Admit Out Loud," to all the boys she'd like to kiss. Her lists keep her sane. By writing her fears (as well as embarrassing and cringeworthy truths) on paper, she never has to face them in real life. That is, until her journal goes missing . . .
An anonymous account posts one of her lists on Instagram for the whole school to see and blackmails her into facing seven of her greatest fears, or else her entire journal will go public. Quinn doesn't know who to trust. Desperate, she teams up with Carter Bennett - the last known person to have her journal and who Quinn loathes - in a race against time to track down the blackmailer.
Together, they journey through everything Quinn's been too afraid to face, and along the way, Quinn finds the courage to be honest, to live in the moment, and to fall in love.
A razor-sharp, passionate and addictive YA romcom that readers will love.

Ugly crying :’(
I felt understood and loved by this book. I couldn’t recommend it enough!
Black Love and Self Discovery
i loved the story! Firstly because of the black love !! I found things I could relate on as a black girl and also learnt/discovered a couple things/songs from the black characters. Secondly, I enjoyed seeing each character and all the layers they had to offer, including the character development, so satisfying to see their growth. Honestly I also shed a tear or two in some parts, a nice story to read!
