Book description
A former sorority girl starts a prestigious poetry MFA program only to discover that one of her fellow grad students is her high school crush-turned-nemesis--βwho can't stop writing about her. No one's more surprised than Leigh when a prestigious MFA program in North Carolina accepts her. A former sorority girl, Leigh's the first to admit she knows more about the lyrics of Taylor Swift than T.S. Eliot, and she's never been able to shake the "all-style-no-substance" feedback her high school crush made in their poetry workshop. Bad enough that her tattooed, New Yorker tote bag-carrying classmates have read all the right authors and been published in the country's leading literary journals, Leigh's insecurities become all too real when Will, that same high school crush-turned-nemesis, shows up at orientation as a first-year in the program, too. And now, he's William, exactly the kind of writer Leigh hates, complete with his pretentious sweater vests and tattered Moleskine. Leigh's determined to prove herself--and William--wrong by landing the program's highly-coveted fellowship. But Will's dead-set on it, too, and in a small cohort, they can't keep apart for long. When Will submits an intimate poem (that's maybe, probably, definitely about Leigh) to workshop, they're both forced to realize there's more to the other than what's on the page. And what's between the lines may be even more interesting.
