Way You Make Me Feel

By Maurene Goo

Book Overview

From the author of I Believe in a Thing Called Love, a young adult laugh-out-loud story of love, new friendships, and one unique food truck. For fans of The Summer I Turned Pretty

Clara Shin lives for pranks and disruption. 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. Not the carefree summer Clara had imagined. But maybe Rose isn't so bad. Maybe the boy named Hamlet (yes, Hamlet) crushing on her is pretty cute. Maybe Clara actually feels invested in her dad's business. What if taking this summer seriously means that Clara has to leave her old self behind? With Maurene Goo's signature warmth and humor, The Way You Make Me Feel is a relatable story of falling in love and finding yourself in the places you'd never thought to look.

Customer Reviews

Fantastic and not your typical YA romcom

The Clara character is very unique and I actually disliked her character in the beginning. She began to grow on me as her character developed. I would definitely read this novel again! Clara's father and her new best friend, Rose, were my favorite characters!!
