She Drives Me Crazy

Ages 12 to 18

High school nemeses fall in love in this queer YA rom com by the author of Late to the Party.

After an embarrassing loss to her ex-girlfriend in their first basketball game of the season, Scottie Zajac gets into a fender bender with the worst possible person: her nemesis, Irene Abraham, who is as beautiful as she is mean. When the damage sends Irene’s car to the shop for weeks’ worth of repairs, the girls are forced to carpool for the foreseeable future.

Their rocky start only gets bumpier the more time they spend together. But when an opportunity presents itself for Scottie to get back at her toxic ex (and climb their school’s social ladder at the same time), she bribes Irene into playing along.

From author Kelly Quindlen comes a new laugh-out-loud romp through the ups and downs of teen romance.
