"The pacing is spot-on, and the exploration of lesbian relationships particularly post-breakup is handled deftly. Fresh and charming." Kirkus Reviews
"This charming romance also addresses the all-too-common practice of discounting or ignoring the queer identity of people in hetero relationships, the complicated road back to friendship after a romantic relationship ends, and the importance of adjusting expectations as you go." SLJ
Hilarious and heartbreaking, often all at once. I loved Girl Crushed, which radiates with humor, awkwardness, and heart. It s a joy to have Katie Heaney s voice in young adult literature. Amy Spalding, bestselling author of The Summer of Jordi Perez
Girl Crushed is the perfect book about queer longing, immediately relatable for anyone who s ever obsessed over someone impossibly cool. I m smitten. Britta Lundin, author of Ship It
