YA Buddy Readers' Corner ♥ discussion

When a guy named Martin Nathaniel Munroe II texts you, it should be obvious who you're talking to. Except there's two of them (it's a long story), and Haley thinks she's talking to the one she doesn't hate.

A question about a class project rapidly evolves into an all-consuming conversation. Haley finds that Martin is actually willing to listen to her weird facts and unusual obsessions, and Martin feels like Haley is the first person to really see who he is. Haley and Martin might be too awkward to hang out in real life, but over text, they're becoming addicted to each other.

There's just one problem: Haley doesn't know who Martin is. And Martin doesn't know that Haley doesn't know. But they better figure it out fast before their meet-cute becomes an epic meet-disaster . . .

Chapter Tuesday May 24th - (view spoiler)[ This is SUCH a fast-paced and easy read that I'm flying through it. Luckily, I am in a easy-read mood so I am loving this. I do find Haley quite annoying and stuck up though and I've read some reviews of people who found the same thing.. (hide spoiler)]

Chapter Friday May 27th - (view spoiler)[Oh oh, there it was. The 'big' plot twist that was basically already spoiled in the Goodreads summary. (hide spoiler)] I love that this is an easy read, but I also hate that this is an easy read.

Starting this before bed tonight - once I get my youngest heathen in bed.

Through Friday May 27th

Super easy, fluffy read which I'm totes ok with as the past few months have been very fantasy heavy and sometimes my brain needs the break lol. (view spoiler)[ Yeah the plot twist was basically given away and pretty obvious from the get go. I get your opinion of Haley but it's honestly not bothering me.. I kinda appreciate that she is acting immature rather than it being hard to remember how young they are because of too grown up actions. I do love the nerdiness moments she has and I'm enjoying the banter between them. (hide spoiler)]

Up to Monday, June 13 11:28 a.m.

(view spoiler)[ Ok, they're convos are adorable. Can we talk for a second about him visiting the gas station she is working at just to see her and her not even realizing?!?! *hearteyes* Also, the burrito conversation took a hilarious turn lol. I also adored her asking him for a celebrity crush! And the author has good taste because the ones he named are totes the ones I'd chose haha! (hide spoiler)]

Up to Wednesday July 6

(view spoiler)[ my goodness this is so cute and easy to read that I had to force myself to set it down to post an update.. I'm curious when Martin is gonna fess up the truth. Like, Haley is ridiculously dense for not picking up on it... like the convention and her telling him that his "cousin" was there staring at his phone... c'mon girl! (hide spoiler)]

Finished!

(view spoiler)[ This had so many adorable moments and I just can't!!! But, as expected, it all blew up when the truth came out. I was a little let down with the ending - I like that they got their happy ever after, just wished we had gotten to see more of that.. but I guess that would be hard with this format....

This is totally me right now! Like, HOW CAN YOU BE SO BLIND?? I'm enjoying the fluff more now too and it's definitely an easy and quick read, which I'm loving since the past few months have been very fantasy heavy for me as well.

So many times I wanted to smack her lol. But it was adorable still. I really loved Martin's texts.

Finished! - (view spoiler)[I loved this book! In the beginning I got really annoyed with Haley's stupidity but after I got over that and decided to read through that, it was just a fun, quick, quirky read! (hide spoiler)]

Agreed! I really liked her quirkiness so it was easy to ignore the obliviousness!
