Goodreads Synopsis:
John Hughes meets Comic
Con in this hilarious, unabashedly romantic, coming-of-age novel about a
teenager who is trying to get his best friend to fall in love with him
from the author of Three Day Summer.
Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy...
Archie and Veronica...
Althena and Noth...
...Graham and Roxy?
Graham met his best friend, Roxana, when he moved into her neighborhood eight years ago, and she asked him which Hogwarts house he’d be sorted into. Graham has been in love with her ever since.
But now they’re sixteen, still neighbors, still best friends. And Graham and Roxy share more than ever—moving on from their Harry Potter obsession to a serious love of comic books.
When Graham learns that the creator of their favorite comic, The Chronicles of Althena, is making a rare appearance at this year’s New York Comic Con, he knows he must score tickets. And the event inspires Graham to come up with the perfect plan to tell Roxy how he really feels about her. He’s got three days to woo his best friend at the coolest, kookiest con full of superheroes and supervillains. But no one at a comic book convention is who they appear to be...even Roxy. And Graham is starting to realize fictional love stories are way less complicated than real-life ones.

Why?:
I must say, I love the amount of
geek-related books out recently. And this one sounds quite adorable. Not to
mention that the cover is super cute, and the title very eye-catching. I think
it sounds exactly like my kind of book and I hope to get my hands on it soon.

Mention:
Don’t Be Cruel
1 by Yonezou Nekota out on June 14, 2016—I
want to enjoy more of the yaoi books out there, but I tend to have a problem
finding good ones. This one looks interesting to me, and I keep seeing it
online. It keeps catching my attention, especially since it’s a 2-in-1.
What’s on your list?
