So, you can imagine my delight (read: sarcasm) when The Way You Make Me Feel opened with two girls fighting! And in the same chapter, Clara declaring that she’s best friends with two boys because they’re drama-free. The other I want to highlight is the I’m-not-like-other-girls trope. I was a little hesitant about picking up another Maurene Goo book because I did not love I Believe in a Thing Called Love for so many reasons with one of them being the non-stop girl-on-girl hate. And let’s be honest, I’d date the damn hell out of Hamlet Wong. If you ever need a simple, fluffy and heartwarming story about family, friendship and summer, The Way You Make Me Feel needs go to on the top of your list. I say may because what’s a spoiler to you may not be a spoiler for me. But that’s not what you’re here for so, onward Chauncey!Īs always, my reviews may contain spoilers. Reading The Way You Make Me Feel while talking to the lovely Tiffany of has also inspired me to think about the Asian vs Asian-American experience which I will talk about once I’ve decided what I’m actually going to talk about so stay tuned for that. Hi, kings and queens! Today I am bringing you another tour spot and I’m very happy to announce that it’s becoming one of my favourite books of the year.

Maybe the boy named Hamlet (yes, Hamlet) crushing on her is pretty cute.

Not the carefree summer Clara had imagined. When she takes one joke too far, her dad sentences her to a summer working on his food truck, the KoBra, alongside her uptight classmate Rose Carver. It will be published May 8, 2018.Ĭlara Shin lives for pranks and disruption.

Farrar, Straus & Giroux Inc publishes it. It is Young Adult Contemporary with some Romance. I have given The Way You Make Me Feel by Maurene Goo a ☆☆☆☆ rating.
