From author Kelly Quindlen comes a poignant and deeply relatable story about friendship, self-acceptance, and what it means to be a Real Teenager. Late to the Party is an ode to late bloomers and wallflowers everywhere.Seventeen is nothing like Codi Teller imagined.She’s never crashed a party, never stayed out too late. She’s never even been kissed. And it’s not just because she’s gay. It’s because she and her two best friends, Maritza and JaKory, spend more time in her basement watching Netflix than engaging with the outside world.So when Maritza and JaKory suggest crashing a party, Codi is highly skeptical. Those parties aren’t for kids like them. They’re for cool kids. Straight kids.But then Codi stumbles upon one of those cool kids, Ricky, kissing another boy in the dark, and an unexpected friendship is formed. In return for never talking about that kiss, Ricky takes Codi under his wing and draws her into a wild summer filled with late nights, new experiences, and one really cute girl named Lydia. The only problem? Codi never tells Maritza or JaKory about any of it.

Quizá pueda sacar algo de esto, aunque eso implique tener que convencer a Irene para que se preste al engaño.Una comedia romántica #enemiestolovers con una relación exquisitamente construida en la que las dos enemigas terminarán apoyándose de maneras positivas.«La comedia romántica perfecta. Es ese tipo de romance con una química brutal que aun así consigue ser sincero y emotivo». (Adiba Jaigirdar, autora de La guerra de la henna).«Mitad tierno, mitad mordaz, este romance les encantará a aquellos lectores que busquen un viaje emocional». (Booklist, reseña destacada)«Una actualización queer de muchos de los elementos clásicos del género romántico: los dos que no se soportan pero comienzan a llevarse bien, el fake dating, el romance deportivo y la superación de un corazón roto». (Publishers Weekly)«Este romance optimista es adictivo, lleno de diálogos ingeniosos y rebosa autenticidad en lo relativo a las emociones». (Kirkus)«Un reparto del que te enamorarás y una historia de amor con la que te obsesionarás. Hacedme caso cuando digo que necesitáis este libro». (Leah Johnson, autora de Yo también quiero ser reina del baile)
