LIFE IN OUTER SPACE: MELISSA KEIL

How to know if you might like this book:

1. You think geeky things are cool. Or you like to read about geeky cool boys.

3. You like a good male POV.
4. You like when the "gay best friend" isn't the typical "gay best friend".
5. You love a romance built on friendship.
