This was such a cute and fun read. Think Gossip Girl meets You've Got Mail.

Word of advice while reading make sure you have eaten because with all the talk of the Deli and BLB and ALL the desserts my stomach growled a few times.

Pepper and Jack take us into the world of teens and their social media presence. Navigating being over achieving seniors, they are getting ready to embark in the college world. Cue in the pressures of parents, family business, and overall NYC prep school expectations.
This story is very different from what I normally read which was refreshing and a great way for me to start off the New Year.

I definitely recommend this read to those who love a younger, sweeter take on romance. This is something I would absolutely recommend to my friends with young teenagers.

3.5 stars

This was one of those adorable, cute books that worked for a whole lot of reasons.

1. the writing was really great especially since it’s a debut novel
2. the story was original from beginning to end
3. both main characters were genuine, likable and cute

I was surprised by how non-predictable the story was. And I loved how mature both characters were, and how well they handled the turns and twists that were thrown at them. I was surprised by how layered the plot was, and that it even covered a couple more serious topics, but still managed to stay funny and trendy. Also, the last plot twist explained so much, especially concerning Pepper’s mom and her obsessive focus with the company’s social media presence.

But besides all that, Pepper and Jack’s relationship was really what carried the story for me. They were just adorable together and had this multi-layered relationship that added more substance to the overall story. I especially loved how mature they acted in crises situations, it was often the outside influences that handled things worse.

The reason why I deducted 1.5 stars was that I felt the story could have been perfectly fine with 50 pages less, and that’s mostly because some of the backstory and inner monologues started to drag a little.

But otherwise this book but especially the couple was adorable. A light hearted and entertaining novel.

Tweet Cute is an adorable YA rom-com from debut author Emma Lord. I found the duel POV's between our two protagonists to be incredibly successful in driving the plot of the story.

Ultimately this story is conflict upon conflict upon conflict between our delighful Pepper and Jack - it feels like it should be too much, yet it maintains a wonderful balance and only builds upon the charm of the story. I adored how these teens actually felt like teens. As someone who grew up doing every activity and sport and would do anything for an A, Pepper really spoke to me and my high school neuroticism.

Only one thing bothered me - there are many side characters in this book that do seriously awful things. And I don't feel as though those characters ever got a comeuppance. There was no retrobution for the terrible things those actions sparked.

Otherwise, I was absolutely delighted and enchanted by this book. I read it in one sitting. I was just too invested in all the layers of relationship that Lord was building between her protagonists to ever put it down. I'm also a sucker for a slow burn and the build up of tension was fantastic.

I highly recommend this to anyone who is a fan of YA contemporary romances - this will quickly become a favorite.

~ Thank you to NetGalley and Wednesday Books for sending me an early copy for review! ~

A very cute read! This book should come with a warning though, that once you get past a certain point, you literally cannot stop.

I'm going to be honest here and say that I initially requested this book on NetGalley for two reasons:

1. I thought it was written by an author I've loved books from in the past, Emery Lord, but, in fact, this is actually a debut novel written by none other than EMMA Lord. Oops lol. But, hey! It all worked out in the end, and now I have another author to read more from when she publishes new books.

2. The synopsis sounded so much fun.

I am very pleased to say that the whole book was that much fun. It's cheesy in the right places, and serious and frustrating in the others. It wasn't pure sugar, but it wasn't far from it. It had the just the right amount of sweet and sour needed to satisfy the conditions that make up a good YA romance.

The plot really is what drives this book. The characters aren't just one-dimensional, but I have to say that they're not really what you're reading the book for. You just need to see what will go down when their identities get revealed. I'm not saying this to discredit the book in any way, clearly the plot devices were effective, I just wanted to state that observation.

Sometimes the characters even annoyed me; they were petty, but not unrealistic. I'm just someone who really doesn't get angry, and sometimes it's hard for me to see why someone else feels the need to blow things out of proportion instead of just talking it out. But, on the other hand, I obviously do know people who do that, so the characters' behavior in this book isn't wildly unrealistic, it's just not as relatable for me personally.

Something I really did love about this book though, was its commentary on competitive schools. Pepper, the protagonist, attends a prestigious private school in NYC where the environment is cutthroat. While I attend public school, mine is known as one of the most competitive in the state, and I could really relate to how she felt at her school. Most books don't accurately portray what it's like in that environment; the characters that are taking 5 AP classes somehow have time to go out for fun on weekdays, which is just not physically possible. This book, however, does a great job of expressing the feeling of school being a competition between classmates for the most elite schools rather than a learning environment. Pepper and Pooja (her friend) start to realize that being happy and actually learning is more important than letters on a report card, and the evolution of this throughout the book was very nice to see because it is something that I have gone through directly.

The romance in here is cute, but I must say, quite light, which is something you may want to know going in. For the majority of this book, Pepper and Jack are just friends—the buildup is what Lord uses to drive the plot. So, keep that in mind if you're looking for a romance-heavy contemporary.

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my time reading this, and I definitely need to keep tabs on Emma Lord to see what she comes out with next!

I couldn't put this book down. It was cute and snarky and dynamic. I loved the relationship between the main characters, but also the dynamic between and within their families. I hope for nothing less than a Netflix movie out of this. It was delightful and lovely and I hope it's one of the hot reads of 2020.

✔︎Enemies to Lovers
✔︎YA RomCom
✔︎Viral Twitter war
✔︎All the fast food to fill your cravings
All’s fair in love and cheese…

When I saw the cover and title for this one, I just KNEW I needed to read it. And oh boy, am I glad I made that decision!

Tweet Cute was such a thoroughly delightful read. It was the perfect way to start 2020 off!

This book was everything you could want from a feel-good, YA RomCom. I had such a huge smile on my face while reading this. I also was craving desserts like you wouldn't imagine (read it and you will see why!)

I loved the whole concept of this book. Two teens in the same small, exclusive high school dragged into a twitter war to help support their family's business. That alone would be a lot to deal with... but the two are also chatting with each other anonymously on a school app and developing a relationship. Not to mention the bond they begin to form as they spend more time together... and they start to turn from enemies to more than!

Tweet Cute had a ton of laugh out loud moments. It also had a few moments that made me realize, oh crap! I really have gotten old, as I realized I don't quite get all the tweets LOL! Oh well, I will continue to pretend that I am that cool Auntie anyway! It also had some very poignant moments that hit home. Times as they are talking about how divorce changes a family's dynamics. Times when they show how we conform to meet the expectations of those around us and in turn just feel on the outside, unseen, different and less than. These are issues that many of us can relate to — whether you are a teen now or were one decades ago.

This book was much more than cute. It was a fun, entertaining read that also dealt with some real life issues for teens (and all of us) of fitting in. I read this one from cover to cover as I was lost in their world. If this is Emma Lord's debut… wow! I can't wait to read more from her!

Tweet Cute is definitely the best title for this book.

1) The book is set up around this Twitter war between a New York deli and a big fast-food chain restaurant Big League Burger. Pepper and Jack take on the corporate Twitter account of their respective family business. Little do Pepper and Jack know that they are classmates on the same school!
2) It's so cute.

I really enjoyed this book. I flew through it over just a couple of days. The book is funny. The Twitter war is so snarky, sarcastic and everything I love.

But the book also has a more serious side. There are these amazing conversations between parent(s) and child. Both Pepper and Jack question what they really want to do in their future which was a struggle I could really relate to since that was me as a high school senior and is still me as a Master student.

Overall, I recommend this book to anyone who loves a cute contemporary (and well who doesn't?)

The story have 2 POV, Jack and Pepper, both of the main characters are bold and have their own family business together. Pepper, always worries about her grades and her family owns the Big League Burger. On the other hand Jack, the one who made the Weazel app and his family owns the Girl Cheesing. Now, BLB introduces the Grilled Cheese in their menu and GC is furious about it and tweeted “copycat”, then the war started. In the story, Jack and Pepper is obliged by their families to control the shops’ twitter account. You can totally see how stressing the twitter, gone so crazy about the grilled cheese thing. Anyway, Jack and Pepper also use the Weazel app and the characters are seriously into each other but they haven’t reveal each other yet. Pepper starts guessing who might be Wolf is then Jack wants to cheat to know Bluebird is.
Okay, I’ll cut that short because I already said too much. I really love the concept of the story with the twitter thingy then it’s related to their families. On both POV, I can totally see how frustrated the characters on dealing with the twitter account. Half of the story is more like bashing tweets on the grilled cheese, then the characters are getting frustrated more and more because of their families. But it’s pretty funny because the book describe the memes and it’s so cute. I can totally imagine it. The idea of Weazel app is also great, it’s like Tinder with codenames, so you can still hide your true self. Teenagers nowadays using apps to communicate in each other and it’s relatable.
The characters are okay for me, I just didn’t get attached to them but I really like their personality especially when Jack and Pepper are like in their phones talking with the app. But then they show their other personality when they see each other. I love the way they think, and having different perspective of both sides is always a plus for me. Pooja and Paul are really great side-characters for Jack and Pepper. Both of them are really great friends in the story. My favorite character would be Pooja! I think I really need a friend like Pooja!
On the love thingy, I think is perfectly good love story. I got hooked with them from the very start until the end. They have similarities and I feel the cheesiness of Jack and Pepper. At first, it’s very frustrating that the love goes pretty slow for me. I didn’t get hooked until the half of my reading, but it’s all worth the wait for their love to bloom!
Overall, the book is very good. So good for modernize love story. It’s not just a story about tweets bashing over grilled cheese, but also for the families as well. Jack and Pepper try their best to be “the best” for their families and both of them tries to hide their love for each other. It’s a really good read!

This book was so stinking cute! I loved the relationships between all of the characters, including the family dynamics. There were some fun elements thrown in to keep the book interesting, and it was so cute I felt like I knew the characters! I'm not usually a huge fan of YA, but this was the YA version of some of my favorite rom-com novels. Think Christina Lauren meets Emma Mills adorable....READ THIS ONE!!

This story has so many developments, I find it hard to summarize well. We take off with the classical rival families, and kids who equally don't get along. This thing is that they already didn't get along, without knowing they were rivals until one day they started competing on Twitter. This gave start to an online battle going viral. It gets even more complicated—the two are having fun fighting each other. Right when you thing this can't become more tangled... They're also unknowingly best friends on an anonymous chat application.

I confess I had fun even just summarizing the book, so there's no doubt this was a more-than-pleasant read. It's true there was too much happening together, I'm not sure why there was a need for a Romeo-and-Juliet-meets-You've-Got-Mail plot filled with a couple more tropes, but the result was good, believe me. Emma Lord knew how to handle it all and keep us interested.

Unfortunately, this falls in the not that much of a full 4-star book but good enough I could round it up. I love this You've Got Mail trope and even though the book drank from there, I felt underwhelmed even though I can't point out the issue. Of course, a lot of the events were also easy to guess and the couple didn't make me swoon enough. As you can see, my negative points are of a subjective order.

I do think it's not a bombastic read, objectively speaking; and yet, it's much above average. It could be more memorable, more refreshing but it's got content. It's a well-rounded book that those who like YA's should like, but I believe the intensity will vary from reader to reader.

A Twitter war was ignited, when the popular Big League Burger chain dared to rip off small business Girl Cheesing's grilled cheese recipe. What ensued was pure joy for me, as the two teens behind the tweet storm became friends, and eventually, more-than-friends.


This book was sweet, charming, a little goofy, a LOT of fun, and it simply made me smile. So, I say, Emma Lord, job well done! I think I started this book with a smile, and ended it in happy tears, and here are five things that delighted me as I read Tweet Cute:

1. #PepperJack - At one point during the book, the internet began shipping these two, but I was shipping them way before that. Both Pepper and Jack felt a little bit lost and out of place. Jack lived in the shadow of his popular identical twin, while Pepper lost part of herself, as she tried to adapt to NYC prep school life. However, when they were together, they were able to shed all pretenses, and be themselves. Why wouldn't I want that!

2. Secret penpals - You are going to see a whole lot of You've Got Mail comparisons, and here's another one. Not only were these two tweeting at each other, they were also anonymous friends on a secret app. I loved their exchanges, and was eager for an unmasking, since they were never as honest with each other in real life. It was hard knowing what they didn't know, but it was also lovely seeing their feelings for each other, IRL, change without that knowledge.

3. Predictable and unpredictable - The predictability was with something I really valued, so I had exactly zero problems with that. It's what I wanted, and what I came here for, but Lord threw in a few surprises towards the end, which I found made great additions to an already fabulous story.

4. Delicious Desserts - One of the things Pepper like to do was bake. This girl took her desserts seriously. I mean, she carried emergency dessert condiments in her backpack in order to doctor up dishes she purchased. I looked forward to all her culinary delights. They had fun names, and were made from the most incredible combination of ingredients. I personally lean more savory than sweet, and even I was salivating from the descriptions.

5. An AMAZING Ending!!! - When I saw this book had an epilogue, I was very excited, but I nearly jumped out of my pants, when I saw it was a jump-ahead epilogue. Let me tell you, it was perfection, and Lord tied up those ends in such an epic and masterful way, that I actually have tears in my eyes just thinking about it.

This book easily earned a place on my made-me-happy list. The combination of romance, family drama, teen antics, and food seemed tailor made for me. Tweet Cute was like a gooey grilled cheese on a brisk fall day. It left me extremely satisfied, and all warm on the inside.

My review is live on Goodreads. It will post on my blog on the agreed upon blog tour date of 1/20/20. I'll post my review on Amazon on the publication date. Thank you!

SYNOPSIS
Pepper has done everything right. She’s spent all of her high school years foregoing social activities and real friendships so she can be top of the class in just about every subject while also serving as captain of the swim team. Every minute of her day is spoken for with studying and the exact right amount of extra curricular activities. She barely has time to sleep (let alone figure out what she actually wants to DO with her life), but that doesn’t stop her mom from asking Pepper to help with the family’s booming burger business on the side. No one knows it, but Pepper is actually running the company’s very popular and entertaining Twitter account.

Pepper is stressed but managing…that is, until her mom accidentally starts a Twitter war with a local burger restaurant over who makes the best grilled cheese. To make matters worse, the restaurant owner’s twin sons both go to Pepper’s school—and one of them, Jack, happens to be her nemesis at the moment. When Jack finds out that Pepper is behind the tweets, he decides to take over the restaurant’s Twitter account for his parents, and the real games begin. What could possibly go wrong when all is fair in war…and love?

MY THOUGHTS
Oh guys. This is such an adorable book. From start to finish, it moves and marches—forward, onward, always. The story is smart and nuanced, never boring or predictable. I love that Jack and Pepper are fully-formed, believable, sweet, but sometimes flawed, characters. They act and react quickly and in ways that make sense. They’re witty, creative, endearing, loyal, and earnest kids just trying to figure out their place in their own lives (especially in relation to their successful and strong-willed parents). I love that they both come from hard-working, down-to-earth families—families who love them and want what’s best for them, even when they don’t always get it right. There was just so much about this book that resonated with me. I liked these people. I understood them.

I know it’s literally the first month of the year, but I don’t care, I’m calling it. This will be one of my favorite books of 2020. I can’t believe this is author Emma Lord’s first book. I’m already eagerly anticipating the next one.

The gist of Tweet Cute revolves around teenage protagonists Jack and Pepper. Pepper's divorced parents own Big League Burger which has become a huge, successful chain. Pepper has been helping out with the companies twitter page while balancing a fancy private school education and swim team.
Jack's parents own a family deli that Jack works at in his spare time and expect him to take over one day. The deli is known for his grandmother's special grilled cheese sandwich. However, Big League Burger suddenly releases a grilled cheese sandwich that is practically a copy both in taste and in name.
Suddenly, the two restaurants are going head to head over twitter over the grilled cheese debacle which is putting Jack and Pepper are the forefront.

This is a super cute young adult novel by debut novelist Emma Lord. Lighted-hearted. Fun. Great banter. Sassy tweets. Honestly, I wasn't expecting such good character development and intriguing storyline. I loved how all the secondary characters had an important piece of the overall puzzle. I can't wait to read what Emma Lord writes next!

I finally got around to reading this book and I wish I hadn't waited so long! I loved how current the storyline was. The characters were so believable and weren't overly whiny like I sometimes find in YA novels. Sure there were miscommunications like in any romance novel but unlike others I have read the characters eventually talked about them and then were able to move on. I also really enjoyed the food element of the plot and it really made me wish there were actual recipes for some of the treats mentioned.

I would absolutely recommend Tweet Cute to fans of YA or even the romance genre. It's a very innocent and sweet romance but that didn't mean I wasn't still rooting for Jack and Pepper to just kiss already! Such a fun read!

I haven't read a lot of YA this month, this was a break from all the contemporary romances and Adult novels. I loved the banter between the protagonists and OH MY GOD the desserts sounded amazing!

Tweet Cute was Too Cute! I do like a good YA book with a little snark and a lot of he said/she said. Today's generation knows how to navigate the social media waters like it's a kiddie pool but Pepper and Jake are definitely seasoned swimmers. What starts out as a media campaign between a Big Burger post and the Mom & Pop sandwich shop turns into a roller coaster ride of thrills and a test of wills. Pepper is a hard-working, get it done girl who is trying to keep Mom happy, keep her Dad happy, and keep her sister from being mad at her Mom because of the breakdown of the relationship with her Dad. Between school, swim team, getting into a top-notch college, and Big Burger social media there isn't much time for Pepper to focus on Pepper. On the other side is Jack, dive team star, class clown, and hardest worker at his parents' sandwich shop. Jack is in charge of social media for the shop as well as his twin brother's keeper as it would seem. Sparks fly when Big Burger seems to have stolen the secret recipe to Jack's Grandmother's grilled cheese sandwich. As the tweets twitter, Pepper and Jack's snark turns to more, but wait, there is an illegal chat app that has been banned by the school that plays a part in this story as well. I'm not one for spoilers so you will have to read the book when it comes out on January 21, 2020, to see just how good it is.

I'm so excited to be part of the Blog Tour for this wonderful book by Emma Lord, <b>TWEET CUTE</b>! When you sign up for a Tour, you never know exactly what you are getting into, but this book was an amazing and refreshing surprise--one of my favorite reads of 2019--and one I highly recommend to keep on your radar in 2020 (it's out today, January 21st)!! Please read below for my review of this lovely and witty romance!

Pepper is a perfectionist. She's captain of the swim team and a straight A student. Her life revolves around school and her family's business, Big League Burger, which started as a mom-and-pop shop in Nashville when Pepper's parents were still married. Now it's the fourth largest fast-food franchise in the country. And Pepper's parents aren't together anymore. She currently lives in New York City with her mom, and attends Stone Hall Academy, an elite private school that, as she puts it, is so "competitive even Blair Waldorf would probably burn within two minutes of crossing its threshold." Pepper doesn't have any friends and spends most of her time studying, staying in her little tiny area of the city, or baking and posting on the cooking blog she shares with her sister, Paige, who is in college. And oh yeah, she's often forced by her Mom to post on Big League Burger's corporate Twitter account. Then there's Jack. Twin brother of the far more popular, Ethan, Jack is the class clown. The one who endlessly teases Pepper. He works in his family's deli, Girl Cheesing, because that's what he's supposed to do, right? It's also a family business. But then Big League Burger steals his grandmother's famous grilled cheese recipe. And suddenly Girl Cheesing and Big League Burger are at war, Twitter style. With Jack and Pepper behind each tweet. But while they are dueling in out in a viral--and rather public--battle, they may just be falling for each other in real life.

This plot may all sound a little bizarre, but I absolutely loved this book. Pepper and Jack (ship name "Pepperjack") jump off the pages of Lord's well-written, adorable romance. This is a cute yet serious read featuring a wonderful couple that can certainly appeal beyond a YA audience--just be prepared for some tech-heavy sections. There's lots of twitter and technology in the pages, including a mysterious anonymous app called Weazel, but plenty of fun and plot twists too!

Jack and Pepper come to us with parallel stories--each burdened with the load of trying to live up to their parents' standards. It's something that many can identify with, and I felt my heart going out to these poor kids. They are quite real and while they have a lot of grown up things to deal with, they are just kids at heart, falling in love. I enjoyed the juxtaposition of them appearing as adults and kids: deep down, they were so sweet, wanting to be happy and to find love among all the pressures in their lives. (And boy, do they deal with a lot!)

This book is filled with wonderful characters. As mentioned, our two main characters are vibrant and real: not just stock romance caricatures. We also have Jack's twin, Ethan, who is a trip, but a good foil for Jack. My favorite is the twins' grandmother, who is an absolute hilarious lady (and not one to be underestimated).

Overall, this is a lovely story--funny, sweet, serious, and romantic. Jack and Pepper are a great couple, with real problems and yet they offer plenty of hilarious and heartfelt moments. This book should appeal to the YA audience, but easily entertain beyond too. It's an enjoyable little trip into another world. 4.5/5 stars.

A quintessential millennial/Gen Z love story! Tweet Cute is an adorable journey through social media, GIF bantering, and finding love in the most unexpected places. Pepper and Jack go to the same high school, but as the respective class know-it-all and class clown they rarely cross paths. At least until they realize they're on opposing sides of a Twitter war between an international burger chain and a local sandwich shop.

Once they agree to go all out in their Twitter feud, they can't seem to stop spending time together. Pepper and Jack are both unsure of their feelings though, since they've each been chatting with an anonymous someone else on their school's unofficial app. Will their friendship become something more or will their online feud turn into a real life issue?

I couldn't get enough of this YA love story! It's a fun ride through memes, GIFs, apps, and social media. While the bantering and rivalry are entertainment on the surface, there's also a healthy dose of learning to go after your dreams and the importance of real communication. The school Pepper and Jack attend is ruthless and demanding and we can see Pepper get caught up in that with detrimental consequences. I was one of those overachievers, so I loved that she realizes getting good grades is important but not everything.

It's also refreshing to read a story where social media plays a helpful role in bringing kids together. The anonymous app is appropriately monitored to shut down hateful comments and it actually brings about positive changes like the formation of study groups.

It's obviously hilarious reading about the memes and GIFs Jack and Pepper come up with as well! Who doesn't love a Mean Girls reference in the book they're reading?? I'm admittedly not the most savvy "internet-er" but even I recognized most of the references they made :)

Tweet Cute is a wonderful addition to the YA genre and most certainly will be one of my favorite 2020 reads!

What happens when you must defend your family's business against another? You have a Twitter-War filled with sassy tweets and memes, of course! Tweet Cute is a fresh and funny YA Contemporary story between the POVs of the main characters Pepper and Jack. This story is filled with balance of wonderful goodness including witty and sassy characters, delicious grilled cheeses and baked goods, and of course a little romance. This is just the type of YA Contemporary book I have been waiting for! The idea of the book fits so perfectly into our world today and makes it even more fun to read! Good food and a little Twitter banter between businesses? Count me in to watch how this unfolds! The story takes place in NYC which makes it even more entertaining to read since I am from NYC. The book perfectly gives off the Manhattan vibes and how you can find a place to eat for just about everything! The main plot being focused around food made me hungry every time I read! I want to try everything Pepper made, especially Monster Cake!

Pepper and Jack were both wonderful to read about and follow their journey to discovering who is behind the screen. The friendship between them blossomed so steadily and perfectly as the story progressed. It wasn't rushed and neither was the romance. Everything about their relationship is what you want with a friend/significant other. Upon discovering it was each other on the Twitter accounts, they didn't see it as a negative, but an opportunity to have some fun. I love the direction they took the Twitter-War to while keeping it civil. They both are very mature and knew the limits of how far to take this banter. They each are supportive of one another and want the best for them. I love how they both discovered they were talking to each other on the Weazel app. It wasn't forced, but casually just happened.

Communication plays such a major idea in the book not just on social media or the app, but in person too. Pepper and Jack showed that through the entire book. Pepper and Jack always communicated to each other when problems arose, learned the full story, and then made decisions for the future. With that said, I like the idea of the Weazel app and it's a very creative concept that Jack came up with. It's a great way to getting to know someone from the inside out. The app allowed the students at Stone Hall to chat freely and be themselves 100%.

This story is lighthearted, cute, and so adorable that I could re-read over and over again! I highly recommend this book!

For the longest time, my mom and I have been fans of "You've Got Mail"-me, more for the love of bookstores and New York, her for the love story. Several years ago, while listening to Nora Ephron's commentary on the special edition, I heard her mention the musical "She Loves Me"-which is what she based the movie off of-that, and "The Shop Around the Corner". I fell in love with the musical and the story line. So it's no surprise that I adored "Tweet Cute".
Pepper is the daughter of the (FEMALE!)inventor of Big League Burger, a small Tennessee burger place that has now gone global. Jack is the son of the current owner of Girl Cheesin, a local sandwich place in NYC (and it was started by Jack's grandmother). When Big League Burger debuts its Grandma's Special-with almost the exact same recipe as Girl Cheesin's-the gloves come off and the two teenagers-in charge of the respective twitter accounts-take it to the mattresses. What follows is a fast paced twitter battle between two classmates (yup, they go to the same school, of course). Early on, they discover their identities as heir apparents to their parent's businesses. However, what they don't realize is that they're also fast friends (and maybe a little more) on the unsanctioned chat app for their school.
Pros
Honestly-and I can't speak as to a private New York school-portraying the pressures on students in regards to college and post high school life. They're expected to keep grades up, have a variety of activities, and still participate in regular activities with their families. I honestly don't know how they do it.
Characters that are multi-dimensional-and not just the main characters. Pepper and Jack are understood fairly quickly-though some extra nuances of their characters come through later. But I really enjoyed seeing the multiple facets of Pooja and Ethan, as well as Pepper's mom. In fact, the revelation that happens with her late in the book regarding the beginnings of Big League Burger was not a twist I expected-and I liked it.
Pacing-I never really felt the book lag (I had a difficult time putting down my Kindle, even when playing video games with my brother and parents), but there wasn't too much going on that I couldn't keep up.

Cons
I think the only major issue I had was the lack of recipes for the food. Perhaps that will be in hardcopy-I need to make that monster cake as well as the blondies.

I received an ARC free of charge via NetGalley/the publisher.
