Summary from Barrington Stoke
Kirsten's facing a rough time and turns to her old friend Honey for
help. They haven't spoken in ages, but they're 'forever friends' and
nothing will change that. Because Honey isn't like other girls.
Nayu's thoughts
So
far every book Karen writes which I've read needs a tissue warning.
Honey and me is bittersweet. I wanted to scoop Kirsten up and tell
her that everything will work out eventually, which it does. It just
has to go very wrong before it can right itself. Feeling out of place
isn't a fun emotion to feel, and can really get you down, which Karen
accurately conveys. I had a different theory on who Honey was, which
made her actual identity a pleasant surprise. Honey is exactly what
Kirsten needs to cheer her up, as too are some newer friends who are
there if she just reaches out to them.
