Dedicated: Nav’s Foolproof Guide to Falling in Love by Jessica Lewis

If you’re looking for a YA romcom that’s equal parts hilarious and heartfelt, Nav’s Foolproof Guide to Falling in Love totally delivers. It’s got flirty disasters, unexpected feelings, and the kind of characters who make you want to root for them from page one. Jessica Lewis gives us a story that’s messy in the best way—because when you’re teaching someone how to flirt with your best friend and accidentally start falling for them yourself… yeah, things are bound to get complicated. Nav is the kind of character you instantly want to be friends with—smart, funny, confident, and completely convinced that love is more trouble than it’s worth. She’s seen her best friend Hallie go through heartbreak after heartbreak, and frankly? She’s not interested in catching feelings of her own. So when Gia, the shy new girl, asks for help getting Hallie’s attention, Nav reluctantly agrees to give her a crash course in flirting 101. What could go wrong? Well… everything. Gia is absolutely terrible at flirting (adorably so), Hallie has more going on than meets the eye, and Nav? She starts catching real feelings for Gia in the middle of the whole charade. It’s awkward. It’s hilarious. It’s surprisingly tender. What I loved most about this book is how it balances the fun of a romcom with the messiness of figuring yourself out. Nav’s emotional journey—grappling with her feelings, protecting her friendship with Hallie, and opening herself up to love—is incredibly relatable. Gia is awkward in the best way, and their chemistry is the slow-burn kind that sneaks up on you. Add in a strong cast of side characters, some chaotic practice dates, and a lot of heart, and you’ve got a story that feels authentic and joyful from start to finish. Jessica Lewis nails the voice, the tension, and the humor without ever losing sight of the emotional core. This is a book about falling in love, yes—but it’s also about choosing vulnerability, showing up for your people, and maybe—maybe—letting someone in, even when it’s scary.
