Clara Shin lives for pranks and disruption. When she takes one joke
too far, her dad sentences her to a summer working on his food
truck, the Honeycut, alongside her uptight classmate Rose Carver.
Not the carefree summer Clara imagined. But maybe Rose isn't so
bad. Maybe the boy named Hamlet (yes, Hamlet) on the truck next
door is pretty cute. Maybe Clara's estranged mom deserves a second
chance. What if taking these relationships seriously means leaving
her old self behind? From the author of I Believe in a Thing Called
Love comes another funny story of friendship, romance, and
discovering that even when life gets serious, it can still be
seriously fun.
A swoony summer read, perfect for fans of To All the Boys I've
Loved Before and The Kissing Booth. Soon to be a Netflix feature
film. Clara Shin lives for pranks and disruption. When she takes

Who knew falling in love for the first time would be so dramatic?
Maurene Goo's pop-culture-savvy rom-coms are the perfect
combination of humour and heart - perfect reads for fans of To All
the Boys I've Loved Before and The Kissing Booth. Desi Lee knows
how carburettors work. She learned CPR at the age of five. As a
high school senior, she has never missed a day of school and never
had a B. But in her charmed school life, there's one thing missing
- she's never had a boyfriend. In fact, she's a known disaster in
romance, a clumsy, stammering humiliation magnet. When the hottest
human specimen to have ever lived walks into her life one day, Desi
decides it's time to tackle her flirting failures. She finds her
answer in the Korean dramas her father has watched obsessively for
year - in which the hapless heroine always seems to end up in the
arms of her true love by episode ten. Armed with her "K Drama Rules
for True Love," Desi goes after the moody, elusive artist Luca
Drakos. All's fair in love and Korean dramas, right? But when the
fun and games turn to feelings, Desi finds out that real-life love
is about way more than just drama. Maurene Goo's I Believe in a
Thing Called Love is a fun, heart-warming story of falling in love
- for real.
