<br />
"Fans of holiday movies, rom-coms, and âAll I Want for Christmas Is Youâ will enjoy My New Crush Gave to Me." -VOYA<br />
<br />
VOYA's full review is below!!<br />
<br />
MY NEW CRUSH GAVE TO ME <span class="text_exposed_show"><br /> Author: Shani Petroff</span><br />
<div class="text_exposed_show">
Publisher: Swoon Reads/Feiwel & Friends<br />
Pages: 214<br />
Price (Paperback): $10.99<br />
Publication Date: October 2017<br />
ISBN (Paperback): 9781250130327<br />
<br />
High school junior Charlotte âCharlieâ Donovan pursues Operation Secret
Santa to win over the senior she thinks is the perfect guy, Teo Ortiz.
Charlie needs a date for Noelleâs big Christmas party. She also wants to
fill the emptiness caused by a breakup and by her single mother being
too busy for her after a promotion at the hospital. An over-scheduler
whose pet peeve is lateness, Charlie works as co-editor-in-chief of the
student newspaper where J.D. Ortizâwho happens to be Teoâs irritating
cousinâis her photography editor. Charlie strikes a deal with J.D. to
help her win over Teo. After spending so much time with J.D., however,
her goals for holiday happiness shift. <br />
Petroffâs newest novel
will put readers into the Christmas spirit as easily as the costume
Charlie is tricked into wearing for a caroling party. <b>Fans of holiday
movies, rom-coms, and âAll I Want for Christmas Is Youâ will enjoy My
New Crush Gave to Me.</b> From the holiday sweater cover to the multitude of
eggnoggy details, the tone of the book is funâwith a tinge of
melancholy at the possibility that everyone elseâs Christmas is better
than yours. While some readers may find Charlie rigid and selfish, she
is a unique character who grows to realize that not everything can be
measured and categorized. <b>Supported by a memorable cast of characters,
Petroffâs festive story will have readers baking gingerbread cookies and
bunuelos at any time of year.</b>âAmy Cummins.<br />
<br />
**And don't forget the Goodreads giveaway is still going on** </div>

Here's what the publisher said about the book:<br />
<br />
<b><i>Romeo & What's Her Name </i>by Shani Petroff</b><br />
An unprepared understudy is forced to take the stage with her secret crush in this YA romantic comedy of errors.<br />
<i>Why we love it:</i><br />
â We couldn't stop laughing at the Bridget Jones style humor of failing spectacularly and making grand gestures!<br />
â The theatre elements in this story were so fun! We love-eth the drama!<br />
<br />

going to be published by Macmillan!! (due in stores Feb. 7th, 2017!!)<br />
<br />
I'm very excited!!! The book is a comedy of errors where an unprepared
understudy is forced to take the stage with her secret crush.<br />
<br />
Here's the longer description: Emily only volunteered to be an
understudy for Romeo and Juliet to get closer to Wes, aka Romeo, and to
get some extra credit. She meant to learn her lines but a) it was really<span class="text_exposed_show">
hard b) she was too busy doing her other schoolwork, her part-time job,
and all of the ârealâ Julietâs chores and c) what was the point?
UNDERSTUDIES NEVER GET TO PERFORM. Or at least, thatâs what she thought.
Now she has to star opposite the guy of her dreams. But how hard can
faking Shakespeare really be?...</span><br />
<br />
<span class="text_exposed_show">The official announcement is on <a href="https://swoonreads.com/blog/announcing-our-sixth-list-romeo-and-whats-her-name-shani-petroff-kissing-max-holden-katy-upperman-and-what-happens-supacon-jen-wilde/" target="_blank">Swoon Reads</a> (an imprint of Macmillan). </span><br />
