This is what happens on the wildest day in the history of high school!
Last year, I had the pleasure of reading, It's Not Me, It's You, and I knew, then and there, that I had to read more of Strohm's books. I loved the style of the book and I laughed until my sides hurt. Imagine my glee, when I saw there would be a companion to this delightfully funny and charming book.
From the description on GoodReads, this one sounds like it will be packed with more of that humor that previously won me over, and I sense some fun hijinks as well. How could there be no hijinks on "the wildest day in the history of high school!"?

I confess, I am addicted to gifs and there are so many wonderful one's to choose from 😄 I love emojis too.
DeleteThis sounds pretty fun! :D
ReplyDeleteI know, right 😄
DeleteI don't know It's Not Me, It's You or this one but I am always up for a fun read. Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteI got It's Not Me at BEA last year. It is written as an oral history and was so funny
DeleteSounds like this could have a fair amount of humor in it which I enjoy in books. Great choice this week and hope you enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI read for escape, so I always embrace a fun read
DeleteThis is a new one for me! It seems like it could be something super fun! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed Strohm's other books, so I am hoping this is great too.
DeleteThis one looks cute! I will need to check it out!
ReplyDeleteIf it is as good as her last nook, I think I will love it
DeleteI'm not familiar with this book or author, but I do love a read that makes me laugh so definitely going to look into this one. Thanks for putting it on my radar :)
ReplyDeleteShe has a great backlist. The last book left such an impression on me, I was overjoyed to see a companion.
DeleteThis sounds like an interesting read! I hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteHere’s my WoW!

I am looking forward to it. Fingers crossed it's great too.
DeleteHa love that graphic! :)
ReplyDeleteThis does sound good and it looks like it would be fun- and humorous too. Adding this one...
Yeah! You know me, I love the fun books. I am hoping this one is as delightful as the last one.
DeleteThis sounds like a lot of fun! I will have to look for reviews for it.
ReplyDeleteIt does sound fun, and Strohm really delivered the fun in the last one.
DeleteOOOO This sounds really good. I really like the covert, too. I hope it lives up to your expectations!
ReplyDeleteI am hoping it lives up to my expectations too.
DeleteIt sounds super intriguing. I'm adding it to my Goodreads TBR list right now. Thanks for the heads-up. Our TTT
ReplyDeleteI love funny books and don't think they get enough love. I cannot be alone in my light and laughing world.
DeleteHow have I not heard of this one before?! I IMMEDIATELY added this one to my TBR, because it sounds like a funny and cute story. Great pick :D
ReplyDeleteI had some of Strohm's older books on my TBR (Taming of the Drew, Pilgrims Don't Wear Pink), but I had not read one until I got It's Not Me, It's You at BEA last year. I am so glad I got the books, because I love her humor and I adore books with an alternate format. It was a wonderful surprise read that made my tops list, and I am super eager to read this newest addition.
Deleteheh high school hijinks! FTW! This sounds so good!
ReplyDeleteI love hijinks. I thinks it is because I was never the hijinks type of kid.
DeleteThe Date to Save sounds like a Friday I would shy away from ;) I love your ducks though!! Nothing like an excited duck! :P I love emojis and gifs too!
ReplyDeleteRight. I totally believe that a picture is worth a thousand words. 😊
DeleteOh, your GIF is SO FUNNY!!!! LOL!!! I had not heard of this book before, but now that I have, I DEFINITELY want to read it! It sounds HILARIOUS!! I really need to read more books with humor in them. There's enough drama in real life. Although, I remember, there was certainly drama in high school life! Lol. That's another reason for me to read this == I get to go to "Nostalgia Lane". Goodreads, here I come!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!! Also, thanks for commenting on my CWW post!! Have a FUN weekend!! <3 <3 :) :)
The trip down memory lane is one of the biggest reasons why I read YA.
DeleteI haven't read any of Stephanie's books, but this sounds like my kind of read (and I'll confess, I "ran" to Goodreads to look up the companion novel). SO excited to discover a new read. Thanks for the share, Sam. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's Not Me, It's You was a laugh riot. I loved the way the oral history unfolded, and especially the editorial notes. I love an alternate format in a book, and this one really worked for me. Though, I will admit, my snarky self was captured by the title. 😛
