I. Love. This. Author. I didn‘t think I was a ‘day in the life‘, epistolary style fan, but Kluger does it amazingly and each of his books are ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ to me. They are all cute, silly, full of baseball (which I never understand but don‘t care) and broadway, but they are also wholesome, feel good stories that will make you laugh till your face hurts, or cry till you‘re dry. Or both.

These are just happy books. I can‘t love them enough. ❤️

Honestly, if I could tell people to read one author... it‘s Kluger. I LOVE all of his books, I‘ve gotten friends hooked on him. Seriously someone gets Almost Like Being In Love for Christmas every year 😂 They are funny, real and will make you cry. ❤️❤️❤️#highlyrecommended #currentlyreading

Oh my gosh, this was wonderful! And very #huggable 🤗

I loved each of the three main characters; I loved the journaling format used to tell the story; I loved that caring adults were involved.

Published in 2009, there were a couple dated mentions — use of a discman prior to receiving an iPod for Christmas — but that did not distract from the overall story.

I stumbled onto the tagged book while viewing the pictured window display outside the Kids Zone at our library. I‘m only 25 pages in, but I‘m really liking this book. Told from three different points of view, in various writing assignment styles.

I thought I'd give some love to one of my all-time faves for #recommendsday. I've probably read this book seven or eight times, and it never fails to cheer me up. It's sweet and funny, with something for everyone: musical theater references, sports references, a cute touch of romance, and laugh-out-loud writing. It captures what being fifteen is like without ever condescending, and it is just such a lovely, heartwarming book.
