About this ebook
Fourteen-year-old Iranian-American Parvin Mohammadi sets out to win the ultimate date to homecoming and learns along the way that being yourself is the perfect way to be.
“A touching contemporary that’s hilariously heartfelt about one girl’s journey to self-discovery.”—BuzzFeed
“A joyful celebration of the right to take up space in the world.”—Booklist, starred review
Fourteen-year-old Parvin Mohammadi has just been dumped. Apparently, cackling, Cheeto-eating, frizzy-haired jokester Parvin is just too much. Whatever that means. But as she considers her now-ex’s new blond-haired, perfectly poised girlfriend, Parvin wonders if he-who-shall-not-be-named could be right.
Though heartbroken and humiliated, Parvin is nothing if not a girl with a plan: change everything about herself and get a new boyfriend STAT. After a night of observing the women in her favorite rom-com movies, Parvin thinks she finally understands how to get and keep the guy. Now she just needs a guy.
Enter sophomore heartthrob Matty Fumero, who is looking more and more like the smoking-hot cure to all her boy problems. If Parvin can get Matty to ask her to Homecoming, she’s positive it will prove to herself and her ex that she’s girlfriend material after all. There’s just one problem: Turns out being a rom-com dream girl is much harder than it looks.
