🍾They talk like the kids from Dawson's Creek; yes I'm aware I've put this as both a positive and negative

This cute YA contemporary from the writers of Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist and Dash & Lily's Book of Dares is super sweet. It is set over the course of an evening as eighteen year old twins Sam and Ilsa host their final hurrah in their Grandmother's rent controlled apartment before she emigrates. They each invite 3 people to join them in saying goodbye and the resulting dinner party is fun and, at times, downright bizarre. Throw together Sam's severe anxiety, Ilsa's jealousy over her twin, a bitch, two ex boyfriend's, Subway Boy, a sock puppet and that girl you sit next to in chemistry and you have the perfect setting for some home truths...
