Kate in Waiting by Becky Albertalli (ereader with android txt) 📕

expressed with this gift of Daniel Tiger’s father’s nonexistent pants.

And finally, I’d like to direct your attention to the squad who taught me everything I know about finstas and f-boys. They inspire me daily with the strength and depth of their old and new friendships and, y’all, they even let me borrow their names. To Anderson Rothwell, I present this framed grainy picture of the Roswell High football field, inscribed with the caption “Whatta night #FNL.” To Brandie Rendon, I present the sequel where you meet Harry Styles. To Katy-Lynn Cook, I present a limo full of hotties, chaperoned by Noah’s mom. To Matthew Eppard, I present a Coke ad of your face. And, at last: to Kate Goud, I present Kate’s driver’s license. Your picture came out perfectly, your world is wide open, and your spotlight awaits.
