Anything is possible. . . .Finn has always felt out of place, but suddenly her world is unraveling. It started with The Party. And Adam Porter. And the night in September that changed everything. The only person who knows about that night is Audrey—Finn’s best friend, her witness to everything, and the one person Finn trusts implicitly. So when Finn’s childhood friend Jersy moves back to town—reckless, beautiful Jersy, all lips and eyes and hair so soft you’d want to dip your fingers into it if you weren’t careful—Finn gives her blessing for Audrey to date him. How could she possibly say no to Audrey? With Audrey gone for the summer, though, Finn finds herself spending more and more time with Jersy, and for the first time in her life, something feels right. But Finn can’t be the girl who does this to her best friend . . . can she?Praise for I Know It’s Over:* “Authentic and sophisticated.

With all that in mind, things are not made easier with her needing only a few deep connections. So she has those: one ...
Good. Really, really good. Exactly the kind of wistful, painful realism I like in contemporary YA.
This book was so boring. Uneventful. The main character's problems were shallow and petty. And hardly anything happened that was worth the drama queen reactions that occurred. Definitely not a fave. :-(
