About this listen

Three's a crowd, but four's a war.

Big girl undies? Check. Speech planned? Check. Nerves of steel? Check. A single crush? Not check?

What do you do when you find your best friend/crush kissing your other best friend on the day you were going to declare your feelings for him? You only agree to fake date your crush's rival.

The King of the Bows, popular golden (play)boy, and all around douche, Xander wouldn't be my last choice for a boyfriend. Across the school, battlelines are drawn, and sides are taken between the new "it" couple of my former best friends and the excitingly scandalous pairing of me and King Douche.

Xander keeps distracting me from the plan: Make Jason jealous. He insists on holding my hand and kissing me and being nice. Ugh. Xander's not nice, and he's not the relationship type, but he's doing a damned good job of acting both parts. He calls it "keeping up appearances". I call it "take one more pass at my arse, and I'll break your nose".

They say all's fair in love and war, but what's so fair about falling for the wrong guy when your two best friends are on the other side of the battlelines?

One of my favorite books. Ever.

I loved every aspect of this story. I fell in love with the characters, truly felt like so much time had passed and there was a hearty foundation to the relationship between Xander Bowen and Holly. It made the story as a whole more real. I was a little iffy on the narrator at first, but she grew on me quick. The only real criticism on this story is that sometimes it was difficult to decipher what was dialogue and what was inner text. Besides that, I adored Keeping Up Appearances and concede that the story was made even better by the narrator.

The narrator!!

I lovvvvved this story! The thing that made me love it more is how the narrator delivered the story, i usually listen to books that have a female/male narrators to get the pov of both sides, but the writing and the storytelling and the accent *muah* i loved the whole story and how the characters developed, i even went back to listen to the beginning again when H ran into X in the boys locker room when R mentioned it just to feel his want to Holllllly 😭😭😭♥️♥️♥️♥️

Classic High School Romance

At first the lingo annoyed me a bit "Bows" and all but once the story carried on, it grew on me. The romance between Holly and Xander was so sweet. It put me in the mind of a West Side Story, the whole Sharks and Jets thing. The narrator did a nice job bring to life the character dialogue.

Enemies to lovers YA romance

Cute with hints of spice clean YA Australian romance. No explicit scenes. Opposites attract. The adage. “Don’t judge a book by it’s cover “ is beautifully expressed in this book.
