The Upside of Unrequited
5 January 2019: Finished this lovely book last night, part of my attempt to do more "fun" reading this year. The Upside of Unrequited was included on one of my ENGL 307 student's annotated bibliographies and was one of her very favorite titles from that collection. Since she's a terrific student, I decided to give it a try. I am glad I did. It's a charming book with romance, really smart insights on siblings, and growing up. I found myself marking passages where this 17 year-old narrator reminded me of myself...not sure what to do with that!
