Speak for Yourself

By: Lana Wood Johnson

Narrated by: Stacy Gonzalez

Girl meets boy. Girl likes boy. Girl gets friend to help win boy. Friend ends up with crush on boy...

Skylar's got ambitious #goals. And if she wants them to come true, she has to get to work now. (At least she thinks so...) Step one in her epic plan is showing everyone that her latest app is brilliant. To do that, she's going to use it to win State at the Scholastic Exposition, the nerdiest academic competition around.

First, she'll need a team, and Skylar's not always so good with people. But she'll do whatever it takes to put one together ... even if it means playing Cupid for her teammates Joey and Zane, at Joey's request. When things get off to an awkward start for them, Skylar finds herself stepping in to help Joey. Anything to keep her on the team. Only, Skylar seems to be making everything more complicated. Especially when she realizes she might be falling for Zane, which was not a #goal. Can Skylar figure out her feelings, prove her app's potential to the world, and win State without losing her friends--or is her path to greatness over before it begins?

Loved the book, LOOOOOOOOVE the audiobook

So, I am a Lana Wood Johnson Superfan, not gonna lie. I deeply loved this book when I read it.

The audio performance takes it to ANOTHER LEVEL!!!!

Super sweet story about a girl coder with migraines and her amazing crew of friends (and her fantastic brother) and super adorable story about a bunch of teenagers and their love lives. The narrator is amazing, even character has their own voice that *fits* them perfectly, and she brings to life the story in ways I didn't know I needed.

Five Plus Stars.
