get flipped upside down when they’re voted Yearbook’s Biggest Flirts in
this sassy novel from the author of Endless Summer and The One That I Want.

So let's start with the main character. Tia isn't your typical good girl. She gets drunk, she has hook ups with boys, and she also has lots of friends with benefits. She doubts herself and because of her sisters experience, she doesn't want to have a serious boyfriend. And then she met Will. At first she thought he's a bad boy looking for hook-ups, but turns out he wanted more. And so began the complicated yet fun relationship of Will and Tia.
I had problems with Tia's liberty with boys. I mean she hook up with any boys and took Will to her bedroom. And she broke Will heart, but gets jealous if someone wanted him. So I didn't like Tia. And Will, well he's your typical good boy, so he's just okay for me. I feel nothing for him more exactly. He's just like good-hot boy, and that's it. But I do like Sawyer! I usually fall for the bad-boy-that-has-more-than-he-seems. And Sawyer is indeed one of them.
The story is light, with no serious issues. I like how realistic and real the problem is, how one title (Biggest Flirts) could turn someone life's upside down. And it also has lots of funny banters, and of course, flirting! My favorite parts would be at the band practice when Ms. Nakamoto reminds them to get away from each other because they're so close.
So overall it was an entertaining book, but I do have some issues with it (mainly the main characters) but if you're curious you could give it a try!
