It's Kind of a Cheesy Love Story — Lauren Morrill

A delicious love story with all the toppings, Lauren Morrill's It's Kind of a Cheesy Love Story is a contemporary YA rom-com about love, friendship, and pizza, perfect for fans of Becky Albertalli and Jenny Han.

After her mother gave birth to her in the bathroom of a local pizzeria, Beck Brix been given the dubious privilege of having minor fame, free pizza for life, and a guaranteed job when she turns sixteen-a job she unfortunately can't afford to turn down.

Stuck with her geeky co-workers instead of taking Instagram-ready shots with her wealthy, photogenic friends, Beck finally realizes what she's spent her whole life trying to hide: that Hot 'n Crusty is a part of her.

Then disaster strikes the beloved pizza parlor that's become like home, and Beck realizes that it takes losing something to really know what it's worth.
