“A smart romance with heart and guts and all the intoxicating feelings in between.” —Maureen Johnson, New York Times bestselling author of 13 Little Blue Envelopes
Emergency Contact meets Moxie in this cheeky and searing novel that unpacks just how complicated new love can get…when you fall for your enemy.
Eliza Quan is the perfect candidate for editor in chief of her school paper. That is, until ex-jock Len DiMartile decides on a whim to run against her. Suddenly her vast qualifications mean squat because inexperienced Len—who is tall, handsome, and male—just seems more like a leader.
When Eliza’s frustration spills out in a viral essay, she finds herself inspiring a feminist movement she never meant to start, caught between those who believe she’s a gender equality champion and others who think she’s simply crying misogyny.
Amid this growing tension, the school asks Eliza and Len to work side by side to demonstrate civility. But as they get to know one another, Eliza feels increasingly trapped by a horrifying realization—she just might be falling for the face of the patriarchy himself.

För ovanlighetens skull en YA-bok som inte fixerar helt på den kvinnliga huvudkaraktärens utseende och hur en "förvandling" plötsligt gör henne attraktiv . I den här boken byter hon tröja och börjar använda läppstift, that's pretty much it. Hon framställs inte som genomgod, fnissig eller mesig, han framställs inte som en "trubbled" douche som ska "tämjas". De framställs som två rätt realistiska tonåringar, om än ngt präktiga. Det gjorde boken uthärdlig och faktisk möjlig att rekommendera vilket jag gör. Gullig, klassik story utan att bli alltför sliskig eller könsstereotypisk.

Mysig romantisk bok men kände ibland att feminismen var lite väl forcerat (svart/vitt)
