This story was easily one of the sweetest sapphic stories I have read in years. She Drives Me Crazy is the first book I have read this year that I would like to give a six-star rating! Since the majority of book-rating scales don’t allow me to give actual bonus stars, I will have to settle for giving this book a glowing five-star recommendation. You can get your copy of She Drives Me Crazy on April 20th from Roaring Brook Press! If Scottie wants to make it through the school year unscathed, she will have to learn to get along with Irene, who may be more complicated than she would’ve ever guessed.

After spending more time together, the two concoct a mutually beneficial scheme to pretend to date, even though they have little in common. But, when their well-intending mothers concoct a scheme for the two girls to carpool to school until Irene’s car is repaired, Scottie realizes that she will be spending far more time than she would like with Irene. Their lives have rarely intersected, but when they do, things always end messily. Irene, the beautiful yet cruel captain of the cheerleading squad exists on a different social stratum than Scottie, among the top-tier elites of the school. Now Scottie’s distractedness has given her nemesis, Irene Abraham, yet another reason to hate her. Then, while in the parking lot, Scottie gets into a fender-bender because she was analyzing the details of her team’s loss.

First, she was distracted by her ex-girlfriend during a basketball game (who happened to be playing on the opposing team), costing her the match.

I received an advanced copy of She Drives Me Crazy from the publisher so I could share my review with you!ĭistractions have a way of ruining Scottie Zajac’s life.
