The Fall of Whit Rivera - Hardcover
by Crystal Maldonado (Author)
Could you plan the Fall Formal with your (hot) nemesis? Whit Rivera is about to find out.
A MASSACHUSETTS BOOK AWARD WINNER! Frenemies Whit and Zay have been at odds for years (ever since he broke up with her in, like, the most embarrassing way imaginable), so when they're forced to organize the fall formal together, it's a literal disaster. Sparks fly as Whitney--type-A, passionate, a perfectionist, and a certified sweater-weather fanatic--butts heads with Zay, a dry, relaxed skater boy who takes everything in stride. But not all of those sparks are bad. . . . Has their feud been a big misunderstanding all along? Blisteringly funny and profoundly well-observed, The Fall of Whit Rivera is a snug and cozy autumn romcom that also tackles weightier topics like PCOS, chronic illness, sexuality, fatphobia, Latine identity, and class. Funny, honest, insightful, romantic, and poignant, it is classic Crystal Maldonado--and it will have her legion of fans absolutely swooning.
