"A smart romance with heart and guts and all the intoxicating feelings in between." â??Maureen Johnson, New York Times bestselling author of 13 Little Blue Envelopes

Emergency Contact meets Moxie in this cheeky and searing novel that unpacks just how complicated new love can get...when you fall for your enemy.

Eliza Quan is the perfect candidate for editor in chief of her school paper. That is, until ex-jock Len DiMartile decides on a whim to run against her. Suddenly her vast qualifications mean squat because inexperienced Lenâ??who is tall, handsome, and maleâ??just seems more like a leader.

When Eliza's frustration spills out in a viral essay, she finds herself inspiring a feminist movement she never meant to start, caught between those who believe she's a gender equality champion and others who think she's simply crying misogyny.

Amid this growing tension, the school asks Eliza and Len to work side by side to demonstrate civility. But as they get to know one another, Eliza feels increasingly trapped by a horrifying realizationâ??she just might be falling for the face of the patriarchy himself.

I really enjoyed this book. It tackles sexism and misogyny in a great way. Even shining a light on how we unfairly tear down women for doing things we would never question if she was a man. It’s got a wide cast of diverse characters and honestly it was such a hopeful read. Please read it and share what you think!! ( )

I love smart, feisty main characters and Eliza Quan did not disappoint. She has been working toward becoming the school paper's editor-in-chief since she was a freshman and then Len DeMartile, the ex-baseball player, walks into the newsroom and disrupts everything. Eliza's inner monologue is funny and sharp. The story weaves in feminism, sexism, friendships. ambition, and so much more but it isn't cumbersome or preachy. ( )

Wish I'd been surrounded by such great women when I was in high school. Very well done, coming of age, debut novel. ( )

All of these characters felt very real and the story really made me think about what it means to be a feminist. ( )

When Eliza loses her bid to be editor in chief of the school newspaper to Len, a less qualified candidate, she writes a scathing essay highlighting the misogyny at her high school. She hasn’t decided whether to publish it when someone posts it. Suddenly everyone at her high school is talking about her essay and taking sides. The principal forces Eliza and Len to work together, while Eliza and some girls plot to protest Len’s election. As Eliza and Len get to know each other, Eliza realizes that she has conflicted feelings about the face of the patriarchy. Not Here to Be Liked is a frank, funny, feminist coming of age novel. Eliza may not care if she is liked, but I loved this book! ( )
