Why is this lie so important? Olive wants her best friend to be happy and she knows that Ahn is deeply infatuated with Jeremy, so she tells Ahn that she’s going on a date with someone else. In order to convince Ahn that Olive is no longer interested (actually, never was interested) in Jeremy, Olive decides to tell a little lie: Olive has moved on. You know who does have sparks with Jeremy? Olive’s best friend: Ahn. She went on a couple dates with Jeremy, a fellow grad student, but there were precisely no sparks. Olive is a graduate student in the Biology lab at Stanford. This is a slightly creaky but charming romantic comedy that had me smiling at the pages. I had squirreled it away in my TBR knowing that the publication date was only in September (HOW are we past September already?!) and past me did present me a real solid in that respect. This was a read that was worth waiting for. Well, colour me pink and call me tickled. CW: There is an instance of sexual assault towards the end of the book.
