He Must Like You

From the award-winning author of Everything Beautiful is Not Ruined comes a timeless story about a young waitress dealing with consent, rage, and revenge as she begins to navigate the complicated world of adulting.

“Candidly considers rape culture and consent.”—Publishers Weekly

“Opens a much-needed conversation about consent, boldly addressing personal and professional assault in an empowering, engrossing read. A must for young women.”—Lori Goldstein, author of Screen Queens

Libby's having a rough senior year.

Her older brother absconded with his college money and is bartending on a Greek island. Her dad just told her she’s got to pay for college herself, and he’s evicting her when she graduates so he can Airbnb her room. And a drunken hookup with her coworker Kyle has left her upset and confused.

So when Perry Ackerman, serial harasser and the most handsy customer at the Goat, where she waitresses, pushes her over the edge, she can hardly be blamed for dumping a pitcher of sangria on his head. Unfortunately, Perry is a local industry hero, the restaurant’s most important patron, and Libby’s mom’s boss.

Now Libby has to navigate the fallout of her outburst, find an apartment, and deal with her increasing anger at the guys who’ve screwed up her life—and come to terms with her growing crush on the one guy who truly gets her.
