High school senior Keely Collins takes on firsts, lasts, and everything in between in this sweet, sex-positive rom-com for fans of Meg Cabot and Jenny Han. It seemed like a good plan at first. When the only other virgin in her group of friends loses it at Keely's own eighteenth birthday party, she's inspired to take things into her own hands. She wants to have that experience too (well, not exactly like that--but with someone she trusts and actually likes), so she's going to need to find the guy, and fast. Problem is, she's known all the boys in her small high school forever, and it's kinda hard to be into a guy when you watched him eat crayons in kindergarten. So she can't believe her luck when she meets a ridiculously hot new guy named Dean. Not only does he look like he's fallen out of a classic movie poster, but he drives a motorcycle, flirts with ease, and might actually be into her. But Dean's already in college, and Keely is convinced he'll drop her if he finds out how inexperienced she is. That's when she talks herself into a new plan: her lifelong best friend, Andrew, would never hurt or betray her, and he's clearly been with enough girls that he can show her the ropes before she goes all the way with Dean. Of course, the plan only works if Andrew and Keely stay friends--just friends--so things are about to get complicated. Cameron Lund's delightful debut is a hilarious and heartfelt story of first loves, first friends, and first times--and how making them your own is all that really matters.

This book is such a disappointment.
I was hoping for some cliché boy next door romance. Even if it started with the stupidest idea of getting rid of one's virginity because of the pressure or not wanting to be bad at it, I wanted the story to evolve into a nice story about best friends exploring their sexuality. But sadly, if that is what you are looking for, I would recommend grabbing your phone and opening Wattpad and open any sex lessons ft... kind of stories. Truly, it is the only time that a Wattpad story is better than a real book.
This book was mainly just a bunch of friends creating drama and having fights. The plot that was described on the back of the book is maybe spread over 10 pages? The rest of the book just seems unnecessary to me.
I know that a lot of times you need to read the whole book to understand the message, but truly I kept thinking about the people that would not finish this book. What kind of message do they get? That being a virgin is a disease? What if they don't want to have sex, they need to make it up to the other person next time? If I could I would hide this book from every teen who is looking for a sex-positive book.
