Resumen del Editor

Winnifred Gobaldi and Byron Visser are not best friends.

Yes, they’ve known each other for years, but they’re not even friendly. Winnie considers them more like casual, distant acquaintances who find each other barely tolerable, especially when he's being condescending (which is all the time).

The truth is, they have nothing in common. She’s a public school science teacher with stars in her eyes, and he’s a pretentious, joyless double PhD turned world-famous bestselling fiction author. She loves sharing her passion for promulgating women in STEM careers and building community via social media, and he eschews all socialization, virtual or otherwise. She’s looking for a side hustle to help pay down a mountain of student debt, and his financial portfolio is the stuff of fiduciary wet dreams. So why are they faking a #bestfriend relationship for millions of online spectators?

When a simple case of tit-for-tat trends between nonfriends leads to a wholly unexpected kind of pretend, nothing is simple. Sometimes, it takes a public audience to reveal the truth of private feelings, and rarely—very rarely—you should believe what you see online.

Ten Trends to Seduce Your Bestfriend is a full-length, complete standalone, adult contemporary romantic comedy.

Perfect

Reid always creates wonderfully complex characters, but this story line was beautifully crafted, too. It was funny, poignant, fascinating and layered. I thoroughly enjoyed it and recommended it immediately. Thank you for introducing us to Winnie and Byron!

Male voice extremely mismatched to character

Loved the story and the characters. Cielo Camacho is terrific as usual. Unfortunately the male voice was very mismatched to the character and the handful of chapters (four chapters?) that he narrated it definitely pulled you out of the story a bit. I’m a sucker for a story and I’m glad I stuck with it because the story truly was delightful, I just wish they had a different voice that matched the characteristics defined within the novel.

Wonderful

I ADORED this audiobook! Winnie and Byron are what dreams are made of. The narration is fantastic! I live for a good grumpy/sunshine + enemies to lovers trope. The social media addition makes this novel so relevant and relatable (even if most of us won't become viral sensations!). I can't recommend enough!

Disappointed

I have always enjoyed books by this author but this one is so incredibly boring I could only get halfway through it. The couple you know will eventually get together waits til halfway through a long book before that even began. Spending entirely too much time with the main characters constantly misunderstanding each other. ::yawn:"

Wonderfully funny & complex

Love the complexity of the characters. The storyline is well crafted. This is one that you could reread multiple times and still pick up nuances from.

Love the story

I enjoy the way Penny Reid writes her characters. They are unique and real. This story was lovely. I didn’t hate the male narrator but he did not match the description for Byron.

Penny is Amazing

I have read all of Penny Reid’s published works and this one was for certain one of my favorites if not my new favorite. For those in the know it is hard to pass Cletus as a romantic hero but Byron just could be. Penny has a way of taking emotionally flawed characters and bringing out the best in them. Easily showing us a little of ourselves in them. I was on the edge waiting on the will they won’t they at several points. Getting frustrated as obstacles came up having to remind myself this is a book and that is what makes her writing so good. I highly recommend. Definitely a departure from her Winston bros and knitting series but if you enjoy the science ones you will love this.

absolutely fabulous

what an awesome story and also performance. I loved every minute. I smiled through the whole thing.

Being different in a neurotypical world

Full-on up to date psychology in this new stand-alone Penny Reid with a non-neurotypical male lead.

Reid shows how to be authentic (your true self) when you or someone you care about is different in a "neurotypical" world. She shows how to truly love when you are such a person.

She shows what a romantic relationship built with new psychology concepts (of self and of relationships) can look like.
That's the brilliance of Penny Reid.

The best one yet

I really enjoyed this one. This one was on point. Like the way the characters interacted with each other was just so well versed. The characters wasn’t dumb they didn’t upset me like other characters in other books the penny reid wrote. This one was just great. It was worth the credit.
