"This book has everything your gay girl heart could want—field hockey, snapbacks, sundresses, horses, history nerds, a bloodhound named Julie Andrews, and the most delightfully snarky romance I’ve read this year. Shrum and Waxelbaum are at their chaotic best in their YA rom-com debut. Hilarious, heartfelt, and gay as hell, Margo Zimmerman doesn’t just get the girl—she gets my whole freaking heart, too!" —New York Times bestselling author Ashley Poston"Hilariously queer and queerly hilarious, Margo Zimmerman stands up there with my favorite sapphic YA rom-coms. Shrum and Waxelbaum are definitely a duo to watch!"  —Dahlia Adler, author of Cool for the Summer and Home Field Advantage"Brimming with heart and humor, Margo Zimmerman Gets the Girl is a story about identity, first love, and the wonder that happens when you make room for the unexpected. This story is everything I love in a YA romance—funny, voicey, insightful, and heartwarming." —Ashley Herring Blake, USA Today bestselling author of Astrid Parker Doesn't Fail"Margo Zimmerman Gets the Girl and wins our hearts along the way. Shrum and Waxelbaum absolutely shine with this laugh out loud rom-com of queer joy!" —Jennifer Iacopelli, author of Break the Fall and Finding Her Edge"Margo Zimmerman Gets the Girl is fun and funny in the best rom-com ways.

Rosen, author of Camp"Margo Zimmerman Gets the Girl—and she stole my heart, too! I couldn’t put it down.

A sapphic romcom that truly shines." —Jen Wilde, author of Queens of Geek and This Is the Way the World Ends"[An] adorable, sex-positive, will-they, won’t-they romance." —Kirkus Reviews"[A] playful romance... Margo and Abbie’s candid alternating narration positively depict myriad facets of neurodiversity and dating." —Publishers Weekly"Shrum and Waxelbaum have created relatable narrators in Margo and Abbie.
