The Start of Me and You

I'm making this new resolution to start writing about books that I read after I finish them, although god knows how long that resolution will last given A) the sheer quantity of books that I go through these days and B) how hard it sometimes is for me to convince myself to do anything, even the really low-effort stuff, how it sometimes feels like I have all the time in the world but absolutely no time at all to do anything of worth, but I finished this book three and a half hours ago and I'm still feeling a little wobbly so I figure it's worth an exorcism or two. Probably.

Not in a bad way. I liked this book a lot.


The summary:
It’s been a year since it happened—when Paige Hancock’s first boyfriend died in an accident. After shutting out the world for a year, Paige is finally ready for a second chance at high school . . . and she has a plan. First: Get her old crush, Ryan Chase, to date her—the perfect way to convince everyone she’s back to normal. Next: Join a club—simple, it’s high school after all. But when Ryan’s sweet, nerdy cousin, Max, moves to town and recruits Paige for the Quiz Bowl team (of all things!) her perfect plan is thrown for a serious loop. Will Paige be able to face her fears and finally open herself up to the life she was meant to live? 
Brimming with heartfelt relationships and authentic high-school dynamics, The Start of Me and You proves that it’s never too late for second chances.
