Read this coming of age in one day and really enjoyed it! The writing pulled me in from the start and I really empathized with 18 year old Natalie, who finds out at the very beginning of the book that her parents are divorcing. Natalie is recovering from chronic cystic acne and has lots of scars over her body, which makes her super self-conscious and shy around the opposite sex. But her best friend's 19 year old brother starts noticing her, and the two of them together are this delightful combination of awkward, goofy, adorable.
Highly recommend this one for teens who are looking for a coming of age story.
