So she drafts up the ultimate "Guide to Losing My Virginity" checklist and complete all the steps in a month.Actions as simple as “compliment a stranger on his outfit” or “redownload Hinge” are the easiest steps, while others, like “Go on a random dating app date” or “get drunk and make out with a stranger,” feel nearly impossible. Why? Phoebe has debilitating intimacy anxiety.And then suddenly, her relatively boring (basically non-existent) dating life is filled with suitors. There's a new fourth grade teacher at her school with perfect arms, a childhood crush resurfaces via Words with Friends, and then there's Jonathan, her college best friend who might be a friend no more...Rapidly, Phoebe’s love life is taking center stage in a way she never anticipated. But this love square she has gotten herself into, and the stomach cramps and dizziness that surface whenever she gears up for a potential date, are making things complicated.Phoebe Berman’s Gonna Lose It is a love story for those who devour romance novels and the latest Netflix rom coms, but struggle to find protagonists that feel authentic, grounded, and like real people.About the author:Brooke Averick is best known for her podcast, Brooke and Connor Make a Podcast, where she speaks candidly and humorously about her struggles with OCD, anxiety, and depression, as well as her latest celebrity crushes, all while trying to convince her co-host to appreciate the magic of musical theatre. She's amassed a social media following of over 1.5M across numerous platforms. She studied Early Childhood Education at Boston University, and currently lives in Los Angeles with her two cats, Jonathan and Robert. Phoebe Berman’s Gonna Lose It is her first novel.About the moderator:Lauren Larson is a writer at Texas Monthly, previously an editor for GQ. She writes celebrity profiles, feature stories, and essays.By purchasing a book from BookPeople, you are not only supporting a local, independent business – you’re showing publishers that they should continue sending authors to BookPeople.Thank you for supporting Brooke Averick, Lauren Larson, and your local independent bookstore!
