Good book!
Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2017
The conceit is cute: a popular, blonde-haired serial dater does an oral history of all the boy's she ever dated. They get a voice, her best friends get a voice, and her school nemesis gets one, too. Will Avery figure out why she can never stay with one boy and why she jumps so quickly to the next one?
if you're looking for a kissing-only take on dating, more or less g-rated jockying for position in high school for prom committee and prom queen, and a sweet HEA that includes role-playing nerds, this is your book.
What you won't find here is the often deeper, more complicated reasons a high school girl might jump from boy to boy for physical affection, or any deeper consequences of high school bullying. And that's okay, sometimes, although Avery does show a high level of self-absorption, in this book she never has to deal with emotional consequences.
Cute high school dating story told in interesting oral history format.

For some reasons, when I chose this book I only read the description and not the jacket, so I thought that it would be more of “personal exploration with a serious undertone” kind of story. It turned out to be a comedy in a “save the prom” style, and it was a fluffy enjoyable read.
This novel, which is composed of interviews and comments from other people (that are sometimes one-sentence long) can be finished in a few short hours. It’s light, sweet and makes you chuckle here and there. Avery Dennis is your typical beautiful A-personality prom queen type that is dumped before the event and is looking into her past in hopes of understanding why it happened. She goes through a list (which was pretty extensive to my opinion) of her equally stereotypical exes. There is a jock, a geek, a guy with weird parents, a superstar, and many more. They are a bit of a cliché and you can’t take them seriously, but they play well into the structure of the novel that is cute and very corny at the same time. There is also your textbook romance story (that you can see from the very beginning) and classic “obsession over a prom” high school drama.
Overall, “It’s Not Me it’s You” is a good read if you looking for something fun, predictable and fluffy in the fluffiest way possible. I’m generally not a fan of high school-themed stories (be they serious or comedic) unless they have very interesting premise, but I quite enjoyed my time reading this book, even though I expected it to be something different. You'll definitely get some cheesy, light-hearted reading; and if you’re a fan of the genre then you will enjoy it even more!
Happy Reading ;)

My Experience: I started reading It’s Not Me, It’s You on 8/25/18 and finished it on 8/30/18. Most adorable read! Love the layout. There’s hardly any narrative at all so the read flow easily and quickly! I like the humor and the variety of characters and their backgrounds. I like the unique plot! This book is definitely a fun read, a nice break from reading slumps. Liam’s and Erza’s story are hilarious and Hutch is my favorite commentator. That first boyfriend and Tripp’s story were unexpected, but cute. Coco’s life at home is relatable to many Asian readers. Most of all, the characters in this story have wit!
This book is told in the first person point of view following Avery Dennis, a popular high school senior who always has a boyfriend, until the unexpected incident. Avery is doing an Oral History of her dating life for a school project and she does it by interviewing students, especially all of her ex-boyfriends. Her classmates range from random freshmen to enemies at school sharing their opinions of Avery Dennis. Sometimes Avery adds a few notes to students’ comments to defend herself or expand the idea. Avery wants to understand herself through the perceptions of others.
It’s Not Me, It’s You is a fast paced and laugh out loud read! It definitely has the voice of high school students. All of the characters are likable, even the worst ones. I like the worst ones like Cressida and Becca because their opinions sound reasonable. I like the positive vibes this book gives its readers, reminds me of Kasie West’s books. I think this book is very well written and developed. It sure keeps me hooked. I love the fun cover as well. I like the romance stories, especially not knowing what to expect next. This book is fantastic and I highly recommend everyone to read it!
Pro: fast paced, page turner, positive vibes, humor, high school, boyfriends, diversity, cover,
Con: none
I rate it 5 stars!

I picked this book up for the cover, bought it for the blurb, and re-read it 56 timed because of the content.
*SPOILERS AHEAD*
I have to admit, at first I didn't really like the format. But it definitely grew on me. I also loved the characters! There's so many different personaities, and Avery had such a diverse range of exes. Which... sounds really weird coming from me. I also love the notes and little descriptions Avery has put in there.
Also , let's talk shipping. The only prominent ship ib here was Hutch and Avery, but let's jus let the amazingness of that ship sink in. Also, Coco and Michael. Beautiful ships since I'm weird.
I loved all the characters. Hutch, the lab partner. Coco, the best freind. Cressida, the smart bitter person who likes to read. (10/10 description) The derpy sort-of evilness that is Tamsin Brewer. Bizzy, officially the worst. And let's not forget the innumerable boyfreinds. And the overprotective Hutch, who is my favorite so I'll mention him again. Oh, and Avery, the main character. At first, I thought she would be a mean popular girl stereotype, but she is in no way that.
I totally reccomend this book to anyone looking for a fresh read or JFK knowledge! You should totally read it!
also hutch, please don't murder luke. that's a crime lol

What a unique and cute book
Reviewed in Canada on October 27, 2021
I was skeptical to read this because of the summary because I expected it to be filled with stereotypes and shaming the serial dater. But I had judged it completely wrong.
This book is a unique, cute, and funny story about a popular girl Avery Dennis whom I grew to love. At first, she comes across as a cliche teen rom com lead, but on getting know her better, I realized she is anything but that.
I recommend this to anyone who is looking for a light but enjoyable read.
