A big part of the book is about Scottie moving on from her ex and healing from their toxic relationship. This book honestly portrays the messy process of getting over a breakup and describes how badly a abusive relationship can damage one's self esteem. And because it was honest and realistic, it was also sometimes very frustrating to watch Scottie pine over her awful ex. I didn't expect so much of this book to be focused on Scottie's obsession with her ex. It was understandable but really annoying when Irene and Scottie would be having a moment together and suddenly Scottie would start thinking about her ex girlfriend. I did like Scottie's character development and how she grows up and makes healthier decisions and gives herself time to grieve over her past relationship before jumping into a new one.

The other team’s point guard has just about crossed the half-court line when the ref blows his whistle. My best friend, Danielle, has called for a time-out. Danielle is our point guard, varsity captain, and basically our makeshift coach because our official coach is clueless. She hustles over to me and speaks in an undertone before our forwards and center can join us.This has the one-bed trope which I love, of course. But, I feel like the author could have definitely done more with it. It was quite brief and not super developed or elaborated on. There wasn’t any of the “they woke up in each other's arms” thing which was a little painful and just a waste of opportunity, really. I just know it could have been done so well; it could have been cold because of the ac and stuff so they'd have to hold each other to stay warm, or the nightmare trope possibly. Just felt like a missed opportunity. one of the book's strengths is its well-rounded cast of characters. scottie's angst is relatable, and her love interest irene is amazingly powerful. i loved watching their dynamic shift as scottie learns there's more to irene than her popular cheerleader mean girl image. their relationship is sweet and ridiculously romantic. and it becomes remarkably healthy, especially considering the fact that it stems from fake dating drama!!

Scottie's love interest, Irene was the star of the book for me. She was charismatic and blew life into every single scene she was in. Also I just loved her banter with Scottie. They had amazing chemistry and were afreakingadorable together. The way they slowly went from hating each other to slowly and begrudgingly understanding and supporting each other was wonderful to read. They had the same bad experience of falling in love with with someone who treated them terribly which sorta helped them relate to each other better. And I loved their big gay journey from enemies to fake lovers to lovers. Este fue un muy bonito Romance sáfico. Aunque con algunas actitudes cuestionables, Scottie e Irene fueron muy lindas, muy fallidas personas. Lamentablemente todas las situaciones se sintieron algo artificial, al menos hasta la mitad; luego de quedar todo en blanco se volvió más natural, y empezaron a crecer en mí. Me hallé disfrutando y queriendo mucho más todos los personajes secundarios. Danielle, Kevin, Honey-Belle, Gunther, Thora y la adorablemente impredecible pequeña Daphne. Por otro lado, odié a Tally, y Charlotte. Creo que más momentos hilarantes y una ocasional diferente perspectiva además de la de Scottie podría haber hecho maravillas. Aun así, varios momentos terriblemente entrañables, y algunos lagrimeantes también, con un intensivo lento ardor de principio a fin. Un poderoso mensaje sobre la importancia de la comunicación y el respeto por el proceso de sanación. Dentro de todo, una altamente disfrutable lectura. Enemigos a amantes, cita falsa, LGTB, Joven Adulsto y un montón de referencias sobre películas. Casi favorito.

She Drives Me Crazy is the perfect romcom. It’s the kind of romance that is sizzling with chemistry, but still manages to be utterly earnest and heartfelt. A must-read for every romcom fan.”—Adiba Jaigirdar, author of The Henna Wars

Scottie was tougher to love. From what I remember, this book is in her first person pov and she says and does some things that quite bothered me. In the end, though, I was able to like her characters, especially how she is with Irene now. Oh, and Scottie is a basketball player.Leah Johnson, author of You Should See Me in a Crown Hilarious and full of heart, with a sizzling romance. She Drives Me Crazy nails both the hate to love and fake dating tropes with expert execution. I want to live in this town and be friends with these characters so badly, and I'm deeply sad that I can't.

An absolutely stunning, but also incredibly important novel about best friends and discovering who you are." —Mason Deaver, bestselling author of I Wish You All the BestThe one aspect I really liked was the healing thing. Watching her get over Tally was fun and the way she handled stuff was good!💕 Danielle knows how devastated I was after Tally broke up with me, and how I’ve just barely recovered. Between that and her competitive drive, Danielle is determined to win this game at all costs, even though we’ve lost to Candlehawk the last three years in a row. We lose most of our games, but it’s never stopped Danielle from dreaming of a winning season. A little sweet, a little sharp, this romance will resonate with readers looking for an emotional journey. Plus Honey-Belle is the coolest name out there, and based on her personality, she is literally my dream girl.
