Can a love triangle have only two people in it? Online, it can…but in the real world, its more complicated. In this debut novel that’s perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Morgan Matson, Marisa Kanter hilariously and poignantly explores what happens when internet friends turn into IRL crushes.Is it still a love triangle if there are only two people in it? There are a million things that Halle Levitt likes about her online best friend, Nash. He’s an incredibly talented graphic novelist. He loves books almost as much as she does. And she never has to deal with the awkwardness of seeing him in real life. They can talk about anything… Except who she really is. Because online, Halle isn’t Halle—she’s Kels, the enigmatically cool creator of One True Pastry, a YA book blog that pairs epic custom cupcakes with covers and reviews. Kels has everything Halle doesn’t: friends, a growing platform, tons of confidence, and Nash. That is, until Halle arrives to spend senior year in Gramps’s small town and finds herself face-to-face with real, human, not-behind-a-screen Nash. Nash, who is somehow everywhere she goes—in her classes, at the bakery, even at synagogue. Nash who has no idea she’s actually Kels. If Halle tells him who she is, it will ruin the non-awkward magic of their digital friendship. Not telling him though, means it can never be anything more. Because while she starts to fall for Nash as Halle…he’s in love with Kels.

"Okay, so I just finished this book and let’s see what can I say.... I liked the concept of this book. It was pretty fun to read. I loved the romantic moments that happen throughout this book as well. But at the same time... near the end ( to me ) it kinda felt... forced. Like the entire plot kinda revolves around her and her issue she creates in her head about her double identity and when it implodes, I feel like she didn’t really learn or grown or anything. The book kinda just... said she does. It was still a nice novel, pretty comedic during some parts, I just wished there could have been more. "
"Didn’t know this book was about this topic. But I ended up LOVING it. I know people who have been through the same thing. So it was a really great read."
