In this book, there is 3 main characters who are best friends. There names are Victoria, Natalya, and Jane(the darlings). They all live in New York city,go to seperate schools, and are in their second semester of 9th grade. Victoria ,who loves acting and drama, is just simply not expecting a guy in life. Until she met Simon (who also likes acting). Simon later in the book confesses to her that he really liked a guy. She thinks that it's a good thing about him because he is open minded, unlike other guys. She starts noticing that simon has been acting pretty strange and has lied to her. She is not quite sure if it's actually true, so she doesn't make it a big deal. Then, Simon tells her he's gay. The Darlings in Love has so much happening and love going on, so if you like romantic books and funny ones there's nothing better than the Darlings. As teenagers in love they do things without thinking like Victoria kisses the guys she likes ,Colin, without even thinking. Awwww this was such a sweet book! So light and fluffy and as wholesome as a book about happy well-adjusted fourteen year olds should be! I loved it! My favourite thing about this book was that the characters are so incredibly REAL. I got quite emotional at parts because I felt so personally invested in the girls and their feelings, which is honestly the mark of a truly good book. If you've read the first book and want something fun and heartwarming to read, it doesn't get any more perfect than this. :)
