Review: It's Kind of a Cheesy Love Story

 

Beck can't wait to leave her small home town behind - especially the idea of her as the Hot N' Crusty Bathroom Baby. But she has a few more years at home before she can flee. When turns 16, she can't find a job anywhere - except at the pizza place.

Embarrassed by her personal history with the place, she reluctantly takes a job. And she forms a bond with co-workers - especially Tristan. At work, she can be nerdy and embrace the side of her she doesn't show her friends. After a dust up with her friend group, she pulls back from them, leaving her with her co-workers.

But Beck's forced to confront both sides of herself and discover who she really is Is she nerdy? Is she a good friend? Is she a girlfriend? Is she part of the pizza place?

My Thoughts: I really liked this book. I loved the moments in the pizza place the best - from the horrified moments to the fun moments with co-workers to the romance. I actually worked in a take-out pizza place when I was in college. I loved that Beck could be nerdy with her co-workers and how they became friends. I loved how Beck and her co-workers would geek out over their favorite TV show. I wasn't a huge fan of her other group of friends or also the us vs. them moments. But I did like how everything turned out. Another fun book from Lauren Morrill!
