The 99 Boyfriends of Micah Summers by Adam Sass

I enjoyed Micah’s character, and he learns a lot throughout the book. However, when their relationship goes viral and things between them start to shift, Micah must confront the reality of relationships and realize that true love is closer than he originally thought.

Luck is on his side one day on the train, where he meets a cute boy, but when they’re suddenly separated, Micah must track him down with only his embroidered jacket as a clue. However, while he spends his time dreaming of romance, Micah has never had a boyfriend before and is determined to make boy 100 the one he’s actually going to ask out. On his popular Instagram account, Micah draws imaginary boyfriends–99 of them to be exact. The 99 Boyfriends of Micah Summers by Adam Sass This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. ❃ I received this book for free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. In fact, the perfect fit-and true love-might be closer than he thinks. Along the way, Micah will discover that the best relationships aren’t fairy tales. The jacket holds clues to the boy’s identity, so Micah and his friends set off on a quest to return it. But right before he can make his move and ask for the boy’s number, the guy rushes off the train, leaving behind his pumpkin-embroidered jacket. So when Micah flirts with a hot boy on the L who’s wearing a vegan leather jacket and lugging a ton of library books, he is sure this is Boy 100. This time, Micah will sweep the boy off his feet, for real! He’s determined that Boy 100 will be different. Ninety-nine “boyfriends” later, his account is hugely popular, and everyone is eagerly awaiting Boy 100. Instead, Micah draws each crush to share on Instagram with a post about their imaginary dates.

Unfortunately, he’s also the prince of imaginary meet-cutes, since he’s too nervous to actually ask boys out. As the “Prince of Chicago,”-the son of local celebrity sports radio host known as the King of Chicago-he has everything going for him. But when a meet-cute with Boy 100 goes wrong, Micah embarks on a Prince Charming-like quest throughout Chicago to find true love-for real this time.

Micah Summers runs a popular Instagram full of drawings of his numerous imaginary boyfriends (ninety-nine so far)-though he's never had a real boyfriend before. A charming YA rom-com perfect for fans of Red, White, and Royal Blue and What If It’s Us.
