"Remarkable."--New York Times Book Review From Annie Barrows, the acclaimed #1 New York Times-bestselling coauthor of The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society and the author of the award-winning and bestselling Ivy + Bean books, this teen debut tells the story of Charlotte and Frankie, two high school students and best friends who don't have magical powers, fight aliens, crash their cars, get pierced, or discover they are royal. They just go to school. And live at home. With their parents. A great read for fans of Becky Albertalli, Louise Rennison, and Adi Alsaid. Nothing ever happens to Charlotte and Frankie. Their lives are nothing like the lives of the girls they read about in their YA novels. They don't have flowing red hair, and hot romantic encounters never happen--let alone meeting a true soul mate. They just go to high school and live at home with their parents, who are pretty normal, all things considered. But when Charlotte decides to write down everything that happens during their sophomore year--to prove that nothing happens and there is no plot or character development in real life--she's surprised to find that being fifteen isn't as boring as she thought. It's weird, heartbreaking, silly, and complicated. And maybe, just perfect.… (altro)

A story about "real life" where the characters find out that being 15 "isn't as boring as they thought".

Apparently the F-word is dropped very liberally - but thats how teens talk - Right? ( )

Read at work for review for ROYAL.

Nothing tells the story of two teenage girls, Charlotte and Frankie, who take it upon themselves to document their sophomore year of high school to prove just how little actually happens in their lives. There isn’t an over arcing plot, and the book is truly, basically about nothing.

One of the things I like about the book was the friendship between Charlotte and Frankie and their candidness to poke fun at popular tropes within other YA books. Sometimes they don’t go about discussing it in the most sensitive way, and some terminology could be considered a trigger, but overall I appreciated the fact that they, through the author, acknowledged that some literature is very trope centric.

The few things that could be considered plot worthy were nice, but didn’t really occur until the end of the book. Frankie’s family history is really interesting and I enjoyed the way she interacted with her half-brother Max. It was really sweet how she tried to help him with his relationship with his girlfriend, Raina. The resulting road trip she and Charlotte and Max took was also fun as it led to a life change for Charlotte, and introduced her to a friend she’d been waiting years to meet.

Overall, this was a fast, comical read, that wasn’t really full of much in terms of plot, but seeing as that was the point of the book, I think it succeeded in telling the intended story.
