I'm a big fan of this author's work, especially

Better Than the Movies. It will always be one of
my favorite YA contemporaries. The author's
writing is right up my alley, smart, witty, and
engaging.
Sadly, The Do-Over didn't work for me as well as
IShow
hoped more
it would. In the end it comes down to me
not being as enamoured with the story or
high-school standalone young-adult
characters.
Because

I loved 'better than the movies' by Lynn Painter,

and was dying to try out this book.
Let me tell you, I really REALLY liked it. I got
sucked in from the beginning, it had me laughing
out loud, and did I mention, the romance was SO
CUTE.

Other than that, I loved the characters and the
plot. I need to reread this.

year… and i’m definitely not disappointed!

i loved the plot and the characters, i literally

loved everything… but the CHAPTER LENGTHS.

best part of reading any lynn painter book is

spotting the taylor swift references throughout.
she’s really just like me.
