About this audiobook
Adorkable (ah-dor-kuh-bul): Descriptive term meaning to be equal parts dorky and adorable. For reference, see Sally Spitz.
Seventeen-year-old Sally Spitz is done with dating. Or at least, she's done with the horrible blind dates/hookups/sneak attacks her matchmaking bestie, Hooker, sets her up on. There's only so much one geek girl and Gryffindor supporter can take.
Her solution: she needs a fake boyfriend. And fast.
Enter Becks, soccer phenom, all-around-hottie, and Sally's best friend practically since birth. When Sally asks Becks to be her F.B.F. (fake boyfriend), Becks is only too happy to be used. He'd do anything for Sal-even if that means giving her PDA lessons in his bedroom, saying she's "more than pretty," and expertly kissing her at parties.
The problem: Sally's been in love with Becks all her life-and he's completely clueless.

I reading this book knowingly this wasn’t something new but I’m sucker for fake dating trope. so here I am. prepared for all cliche. it wasn’t adorkable more annoy-able
but man I can’t stand her friend, what’s her name? Hooker?(What was it about this book with pet name anyway?) she so annoying and been shitty friend to her. honestly every time Sally told her to don’t set her up, (who care?) she done it anyway. such a good friend (rolling my eyes) why she so obsessed with Sally’s date?. it’s just the one-third of the book and I want to put this down.
it wasn’t terrible but just too juvenile for my taste. lack of communication, Sally’s in denial, all nonsense misunderstandings and blindness. they couldn’t see. what an idiot pair. I designed to put out my misery by DNF it. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Lovedd it, it is good for people who want a light and fluffy story
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Very sweet book!! Although the end was not my favorite the book was overall good!!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Much cuter than I anticipated, I liked it quite a bit. Her best friend (girl) was a shitty friend though.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Delightful! Cookie O'Gorman combines the popular YA romance tropes of best friends to romance and the fake boyfriend and handles them both superbly. Very good characters, and not just the central couple, simple storyline but wrangled emotional plot, perfect pacing and great tension yield a YA romance that is well, just adorkable (perfect word, that!). There is no sex in this book, which just goes to show that one doesn't have to consummate lust all over the pages in order to communicate love and desire. Well done Ms. O'Gorman, and heartily recommended to anyone with a soft centre!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A very sweet story about two high school students, Sally and Becks, who have been best friends their whole lives. It reminded me SO much of To All the Boys I've Loved Before (which was published first). If you liked that one, this is different enough to still be enjoyable. It's certainly predictable but still fun. Sally's mom and friend are continuously trying to set her up with guys. She decides to get a fake boyfriend in order to make them stop.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Cute but predictable and somewhat generic.
