About this listen

Seventeen, fashion-obsessed, and gay, Abby Ives has always been content playing the sidekick in other people's lives. While her friends and sister have plunged headfirst into the world of dating and romances, Abby's been happy to focus on her plus-size style blog and her dreams of taking the fashion industry by storm. When she lands a great internship at her favorite boutique, she's thrilled to take the first step toward her dream career. Then she falls for her fellow intern, Jordi Perez. Hard. And now she's competing against the girl she's kissing to win the coveted paid job at the end of the internship. But really, nothing this summer is going as planned. She also unwittingly becomes friends with Jax, a lacrosse-playing bro-type who wants her help finding the best burger in Los Angeles, and she's struggling to prove to her mother - the city's celebrity health nut - that she's perfectly content with who she is. Just as Abby starts to feel like she's no longer the sidekick in her own life, Jordi's photography surprisingly puts her in the spotlight. Instead of feeling like she's landed a starring role, Abby feels betrayed. Can Abby find a way to reconcile her positive yet private sense of self with the image others have of her?

Amazing

The adorable, sweet, cute lesbian contemporary I've always wanted. I already know that I'll be listening to this book many more times in the near future.

Wonderful

I really love this book. The characters are great, and Il love hearing a story with a plus-sized character in it. The narrator captures the voices perfectly too. I definitely recommend it.

Funny quirky and a thoroughly good read

Enjoyed it much despite it being a “teen” novel....esp when read so very well to relay the angst

Easy listening and enjoyable

I enjoyed the book, it was easy to listen up and upbeat. Maybe a little bit timid for my liking..but I think I’m slightly over their desire age demographic 🙈

Narrator was excellent. Played each character brilliantly.

The author described all characters really well and it was easy to imagine each scene.

Worth a listen if you’ve got a few hours to kill, but it’s not as gripping as I would have liked.

Well portrayed f/f first love

Really enjoyed this audiobook. It is full of the energy and enthusiasm of youth and it was good a tonic for a jaded old woman. I loved learning about the LA culture, food culture, fashion culture, photography as art and the art of social media along with charming Amy, serious Jordi and a host of other interesting people. It also deals with sizeism and how this impacts negatively on a young woman. Well written by Amy Spalding and well spoken by Cassandra Morris.
