He brings in some trouble, as Jess is hanging out with him a lot (and even borrowing his clothes when a mud-emergency arises). Then there is Ben, who is just a friend to Jess, though it seems he used to be more. I loved that! She was really supportive, even though you could see that she at times had a hard time with it (she just wanted to talk about Fred). She could have easily just talked all the time about Fred, but instead she also let her best friend rave about her new crush. After all he was the one who said that horrible thing at the beginning of the book.Īnd unlike so many other books about friendship and romance, she was very sweet towards her friend, Flora. And yes, I did agree with her that it should be Fred to come to her and say sorry. Her stalking Fred? It was a bit annoying, but I can imagine she is curious, worried, and wants to reconcile with him. I also worry a bit about her schoolwork, but it seems she is pretty dedicated to it, even though we often get the impression she never makes it.
In fact throughout the book she is talking about how she hopes God will forgive her for lying so much. Thankfully, Jess knows she is lying, and that it is bad. I did wish she would lie a bit less, or try to make everything into something funny. I am really happy with that, as I love her books, and I am always looking around for similar books.īack to Jess. In fact the whole book reminded me of Louise Rennison's books. She was hilarious, relatable (well in a way at least), and she reminded me of Georgia Nicolson (with how she acted, though she was way less weird when it came to romance). Sure, it was a bit confusing at times, but mostly I could make sense of what was happening, and also understand what happened before the events of this book. Thankfully you don't need to have read the other books. If anything I thought it was the second (and only because of the blurb). When I bought this one at Boekenfestijn, I didn't really know this was the 3rd book in the series. There is never a dull day in Jess her life! Hilarious situations, friendship, stalking your ex, and much more.
