Foolish Hearts by Emma Mills

“A contemporary novel about a girl whose high school production of A Midsummer Night's Dream leads her to new friends—and maybe even new love.

The day of the last party of the summer, Claudia overhears a conversation she wasn't supposed to. Now on the wrong side of one of the meanest girls in school, Claudia doesn't know what to expect when the two are paired up to write a paper—let alone when they're both forced to try out for the school production of A Midsummer Night's Dream.

But mandatory participation has its upsides—namely, an unexpected friendship, a boy band obsession, and a guy with the best dimpled smile Claudia's ever seen. As Claudia's world starts to expand, she finds that maybe there are some things worth sticking her neck out for.”

Emma Mills is now an auto-read author on my reading list. In Foolish Hearts, Claudia is forced to team up with Iris, the girl Claudia overheard getting dumped by her girlfriend. After a failed joint English paper, the two agreed to work on the upcoming play in conjunction with the neighboring boys' school. Working on costumes for the production, Claudia begins to spread her wings and finally begins to make friends at school.

When Claudia catches the eye of Gideon, a popular boy, she fights her attraction. As she continues to hang out with Iris, a new friendship between the two flourishes. When several problems arise in her family, Claudia learns that she needs to take a leap of faith and live her life.

With the plot revolving around the play A Midsummer's Night Dream and a couple of fandoms, readers will stay up all night to see how Claudia story ends.
