Did I enjoy this book: I did enjoy this read. It was a good YA contemporary story.

Scarlett Epstein is a high school student who loves to write fan fiction. For me, this was a great hook. I loved that this was her creative outlet. I liked her fanfic story. It was different and interesting and I got caught up in it as much as I did in Scarlett Epstein Hates It Here. Her relationship with her neighbor was kind and the neighbor cracked me up. She gave Scarlett some good advice/insight as well.

As a whole, the story was engrossing and humorous.

I was wanting to read this book and it showed up in my Uppercase Box, a monthly subscription box. This box is pretty cool because each book (with the expert plan) comes with codes to see interviews, exclusive content, and whatnot. It’s a really awesome feature. If you like YA books, you should definitely check out Uppercase.

About the book – from Goodreads: 
Meet Scarlett Epstein, BNF (Big Name Fan) in her online community of fanfiction writers, world-class nobody at Melville High. Her best (read: only) IRL friends are Avery, a painfully shy and annoyingly attractive bookworm, and Ruth, her weed-smoking, possibly insane seventy-three-year-old neighbor.

When Scarlett’s beloved TV show is canceled and her longtime crush, Gideon, is sucked out of her orbit and into the dark and distant world of Populars, Scarlett turns to the fanfic message boards for comfort. This time, though, her subjects aren’t the swoon-worthy stars of her fave series—they’re the real-life kids from her high school. And if they ever find out what Scarlett truly thinks about them, she’ll be thrust into a situation far more dramatic than anything she’s ever seen on TV . . .
