ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Better Than the Movies by Lynn Painter follows Liz Buxbaum, a high school senior who has spent years idealizing the perfect romance, influenced by the romantic comedies she shared with her late mother. When her childhood crush, Michael Young, returns to town, Liz sees it as her chance for a fairytale romance. However, as she navigates her feelings for Michael, she realizes that love is more complicated than the movies. With the help of her childhood rival, Wes Bennett, Liz learns about self-discovery, the value of authentic relationships, and the clash between idealized love and real-world connections.
