Not If You Break Up with Me First

By: G.F. Miller

Narrated by: Aden Hakimi, Caitlin Kelly

Two friends who have unhappily found themselves accidentally dating try to drive the other one to call things off in this witty and heartfelt middle school romance.

Childhood friends Eve and Andrew are destined to be together—everyone says so, especially their friends and classmates who are all suddenly crush-obsessed. So when Eve and Andrew’s first eighth grade school dance rolls around and Eve, feeling the pressure, awkwardly asks Andrew to go with her, everyone assumes they are Officially Dating and Practically in Love. Overwhelmed, Eve and Andrew just…go with it.

And it’s weird. Neither of them wants this dating thing to mess up their friendship, and they don’t really see each other that way. But they also don’t want to be the one to call things off, the one to make things super awkward. So they both—separately—pledge to be the worst boyfriend or girlfriend ever, leaving it to the other person to break up with them. It would be genius…if the other person weren’t doing the exact same thing.

Critic reviews

"Hakimi and Kelly portray the triumphs, devastation, and adolescent awkwardness of Eve and Andrew effectively. In addition to voicing the two main characters, the narrators skillfully represent an array of unhelpful yet vociferous middle school friends with distinct personalities. A tumultuous sort-of-romance between middle schoolers with a satisfying resolution and wide appeal." (Deidre Winterhalter)
