The Best Worst Thing by Lauren Okie
Pub date - 10/14/25
The writing is fantastic, the story compelling.
While I know I was supposed to love her, I despised Nicole. Logan, I adored. Nicole was wildly immature, and intensely unlikeable - I don’t need to always like main characters to enjoy a book, but I despised Nicole; I utterly loathed her and her stupid, fake vocal fry and it did affect my reading enjoyment.
Every other review I’ve seen has been so complimentary, and I’m sorry that mine isn’t as but I wasn’t able to really connect with this one because Nicole was so annoying and I didn’t even have the happiness in reading a lot of character development.
I will read the author’s future work - she’s definitely one to watch and most other readers are sure to love this. Recommended.
