Join us as Meredith Mincey, author of Boysick, visits Book and Bloom for an author signing! This is the perfect book for those who love stories of romance in during coming-of-age time.

A high school junior eager for love takes desperate measures to win the heart of an old crush while a lifelong friendship confuses her mission.

Frizzy-haired and socially awkward sixteen-year-old Marlowe Ford is the self-proclaimed “nerdy best friend” of the high energy and gutsy Lenny Taylor, whose boyfriend Jacob is never far behind. Together, the girls navigate the start of their junior year of high school, along with Lenny’s older brother, Carter, who Marlowe lovingly refers to as the “golden retriever of boys.” Forever the single best friend, Marlowe is determined this year to find The One.

Having met at summer camp as kids, the girls and their families have been friends since they were eight. So, Marlowe and Lenny can’t believe it when Beau Braxton, an old camp friend and huge childhood crush of Marlowe’s, shows up on the first day of school after having moved away years ago. Marlowe is already planning her future together with the newly returned Beau. Always the one to be pining about boys, she isn’t necessarily lovesick. Marlowe is Boysick.
