 YA ReviewMy ThoughtsThe Only Thing Worse Than Me Is You is a young adult contemporary by Lily Anderson. This book was a ton of fun, and I can see comic book lovers swarming to this book. And, by the way, I think this book has the perfect cover. I seriously love it. 
 The only Thing Worse Than Me is You centers around three best friends- Trixie, Meg and Harper, who all go to a school for smarties. In The Only Thing Worse Than Me is You there is an all out battle for a better class ranking. I get it, class rank was really important to me in high school too. Though, I didn't (and no one did) take it to the extreme that Trixie did, but I appreciated her passion and drive. She is a hoot to read about. Her and her friends are all my brand of quirky and nerdy. I loved all of the fandom talk in The Only Thing Worse Than Me Is You. I could relate more to the comic book stuff than the Dr. Who stuff, but I still enjoyed it nonetheless. (If you are a Dr. Who fan though, I think your fan girling for this book will be kicked up even more.) 
 And can we talk about Ben? He just makes me giddy. I loved him so much. Trixie and Ben had some grade A+ banter between the two of them. Just the way I like it. In fact, the only thing I didn't like about Trixie and Ben is that Trixie is Team Iron Man in Avengers Civil War (see below). I will never stray from my Captain America. never. 
 The Only Thing Worse Than Me Is You is chocked full of fandom references for various tv shows, comics and movies, and I loved every second of it. If pop culture references are not your thing, then this might not be the book for you. But if you are looking for a book where you can let your nerd flag fly, and at the same time share lots of laughs with some really great characters with an even better friendship, The Only Thing Worse Than Me Is You is a great book for you to grab.
