![]() ![]() Of course, she has had a crush on her brother’s best friend, Richard, and spends the bulk of the book hopelessly pining after him. It’s Christmastime, and her brother, sister-in-law, her brother’s best friend, and a girl named Fleur all come home from college to celebrate with the positively perfect Bjorkman family. Plus, she’s 6 feet tall and not the smoothest talker out there. Kate’s a bit of an ugly duckling, with coke bottle glasses and boots with fruit on them and stubbly legs. We’ve got a story within a story, as we read both about Kate’s experiences as well as her writing process. Kate Bjorkman, aka Boo, is the author and narrator of this book, and she is hilarious.

They’re full of three-paragraph kisses describing people’s tongues and spittle.
