An addictive, engrossing, and messy love triangle or should I say love square of young teenage drama at it’s best!!!! Monica Murphy completely outdid herself as she has delivers a sexy, complicated and fresh modern story of young love, friendship, and of course D-R-A-M-A. If One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl, Beverly Hills 90210, and Dawson’s Creek had a baby, Just Friends would be it!!

Olivia is best friends with Dustin and Emily. These three are practically inseparable. So what’s the problem? Well, Dustin likes Olivia. Like is putting it mildly. Dustin is madly in love with Olivia. He wants to be more than best friends. Olivia shared her first kiss with Dustin. First, make out session and rounded the bases with him except go all the way. Olivia also likes Dustin but when she returns back from her summer vacation, Olivia is shocked to learn what her two best friends have been hiding from her. First, Emily is hooking up with the new guy in town. Second, she discovers that Dustin had hooked up with Emily over the summer. Although Emily was fooling around with Ryan, the new guy, she has feelings for Dustin. Dustin wants Olivia to forgive him. Olivia’s friendship with Emily is ruined. Olivia makes a new friend and oh yeah Ryan wants Olivia. So yeah, you can see the dilemma and hot mess of drama. Did I forget to mention Olivia is torn with who she likes...Dustin or Ryan?

#JustFriend

Ahhh...is your head exploding already with all the drama of who is friends with who? Who is dating who? And which friend can you trust? As much as my head is exploding with all this teenage drama and angst, I am addicted. Yes, Monica Murphy you have worked your evil genius magic on me and I need to know what happens next. Who will Olivia choose? And of course, what is happening with Emily? Did I forgot to mention that my favorite character of this book is not the heroine but the secondary character, Amanda. Yes, I think that she is the only sane one of the group and thank you Monica Murphy for that.

Just Friends is one of those reads that you can’t helped but be dangerously engrossed and addicted to. There are characters that I wanted to knock some senses into them but at the same time, I tried to understand them since being a teenager is not easy as you are trying to find yourself and discover that it’s not the quantity of friends but the quality of friends. So if you are looking for a read that was compelling, heartfelt, and full of drama then I would definitely recommend reading this book. Just Friends might be my new favorite guilty pleasure as I need to know what going to happen to these group of friends as they discover and find themselves. Can’t wait to read the next book.
