Call Your Boyfriend is an amazing queer coming of age story and my little bisexual heart simply adored it.

Beau has been hooking up with a girl who won’t acknowledge her existence. Charm has been into the same girl. What happens when they both end up in the same cafe angry at the same girl? Enter The Plan. The plan has rules of course, one being that Charm and Beau cannot fall for each other. However as time passes, The Plan starts to evolve into sometime neither one saw coming. Refreshing, funny and real this book checked all the boxes for me.

Just two idiots in love being idiots and not telling each other how they feel for an absurd amount of time while they pretend they don't have feelings for each other and are just friends. all while trying to get revenge on a confused queer girl.... really cute and quick queer YA romance. outlining the struggles of someone trying to come out and how it feels to be out and be hidden.

I LOVED Charm and Beau and was rooting for them the whole story. The entire cast was sublime (Enzo and Ezra? Adorable!), and the characters were real and messy--just like teenagers are. Absolutely loved this story.

I loved this! This was such a cute YA Rom-com, and I was kicking my feet throughout the entire story. I loved the main characters, and the romance was PERFECT. When I pick up a YA book, these are the vibes I always want. I was smiling so much throughout the book and thought it was such an amazing read. If you're wanting something sweet and romantic, I heavily recommend giving this story a try!

This was such a cute fun read that really embodies what it feels like to be a teenager, while also having a very interesting plot!

This book had me hooked from page one and it was such a blast.

Absolutely LOVED this book. The authors seamlessly did a wonderful job of co-writing this book. The main characters, Beau and Charm, are well throughout and the plot has depth that goes beyond the surface of a typical YA Romcom.

Both character are showcased in their own unique way and have distinct personalities that elevate the book and has a way of really breathing life into the storyline. The supporting cast is phenomenally written and the dialogue was executed in such a way where every characters authenticity was deftly explored and used to fully give the reader an appreciation for the complexity of what each primary character was ultimately going through and teenage life in todays realities. Impressively, the book does explore and do justice to the each character’s intersectionalities.

Truly a witty and fun book that lives up to the hype. The line that states that if you liked the movie Bottoms you’ll enjoy this book is 100% accurate. The highest praise I can give this work is that is was immediately placed on my reread list and recommend to those readers who typically don’t read YA Novels; you won’t be disappointed.

i sadly have no interest in this and will be dnf’ing. it had the absolute cutest premise and the cover was amazing but there’s something i’m not quite connecting with at the moment.

This one is very cute! If you're a fan of lots of pining and crushing, miscommunications, and a slow burn, this one is a great choice! I really liked learning about Charm and Beau's lives, and the side characters felt like they had their own stories too.

I only had a few complaints about the story, namely that even though Maia did them both wrong, I think The Plan was cruel, especially after we learn more about Maia.

I also didn't like how they (particularly Beau) talked about certain "straight" girls and assumed their sexuality for them. Just because people aren't out yet doesn't mean they are necessarily straight or just messing around. However, this was somewhat addressed further in the book which eased my mind a bit.

Finally, my biggest complaint is that there wasn't nearly enough of them shown as a couple. They admit their feelings and kiss and then the book just abruptly ends. I would have really loved to read more about their relationship or future lives in some kind of an epilogue.

Overall however, the book is still enjoyable. It's funny, full of heart, and has a very cute romance at the center. 4.5/5 stars rounded up.

Thank you for the opportunity to read this prior to publication.

You never know how much you are missing out with representation until you read a book that has us in it. It was refreshing and felt good. This was the sweetest read! Beau and Charm have my heart and I'll forever be beefing with Maia. The authors do a great job of invoking anxiety, fear, joy, anger, etc. You can really feel the characters emotions as they happen. There were parts that had me grinning as I read. If you're looking for a heartwarming, coming if age, baby gay book. This is the one. 10/10

5/5 stars

WOW! This was such a treat to read! I love the revenge plot as well as our two main characters, Beau and Charm, growing and improving throughout the course of the book. These characters felt very realistic, making me root for them as well as breeze through the story!

If you loved Bottoms, you’ll definitely enjoy this book! I 1000% recommend it!

This book had me hooked from the first line. It was such an amazing read! The character development and the plot was so well done. I loved both of the main girls. They felt so relatable and you really wanted to root for them.

this was a DELIGHT. I loved both of the characters so much. However, something I deeply appreciated was that things were not tied up in a perfect neat bow for either of the girls in regards to their familial struggles. I like the messaging for teens that good things and personal growth can happen, even if your circumstances haven't changed/aren't ideal.

Teaming up and playing a little revenge on the girl who broke your heart sounds like a great time until you start falling for your partner in crime.

I love this so much. It was such an enjoyable read with such lovable characters. If you liked the movie Bottoms I feel like you’d enjoy this book, the humor was simply amazing. I really liked seeing the character development through this story and really enjoyed how it mixed well with the plot as well. I would love to see this get a movie adaptation, it was genuinely so good.
