Best Quotes From 'She Drives Me Crazy'
"I just wish people could be more creative with their ignorance."
"For the dozenth time this year, I wish I could go home with anyone else. But tonight it's not because I hate her. It's because I can no longer deny that I actually like her."
"The ball is usually so controlled in my hands, but tonight it's like I'm chucking a giant potato through a window tunnel."
"At the end of the day, I'm the only person living my life. Why should I answer to anyone else?"
"Cheerleaders are athletes."
'She shoots me a look that to everyone else probably looks flirtatious, but to me seems to say This is such bullshit and these people are idiots and I might kill you but I haven't decided yet.'
"You will move through your life and fall in love with many different people, and at some point, you will get your heart broken. It's unavailable. The key is not to be afraid of the breaking. People break our hearts, but they create more room in them first, and that room makes it possible for us to become more ourselves."
"If you want them to think that you matter, start acting like they should already know that you matter."
"But from me, you deserve honesty. I haven't wanted to be real with you about how messy and broken and confused I feel. I tried to keep you away by telling myself you were the popular girl who didn't care about me. But you do care about me. You care about a lot of things. You have a big heart and you're funny and headstrong. You're one of the most amazing people I've ever met."
"Because before you can worry about who's in your passenger seat, you have to learn to drive yourself."

i saw the “erin kellyman should play scottie from She Drives Me Crazy in a movie remake” discourse on my twitter but i am not active enough on twitter to echo this sentiment there but SHE TOTALLY SHOULD FUCKING PLAY SCOTTIE FRIM SHE DRIVES ME CRAZY THIS WAS SUCH A GOOD TAKE
but also absolutely love that we are at a time in sapphic rep that on two major platform tv series we have two queer actors, playing canon queer characters, and are BOTH redheads so like really even if erin didn’t get it i would be elated if liv hewson got it
#the fact that neither of them are american but would be playing an american girl from the south is not lost on me and makes me want it more#ok this picture of erin is absolutely hilarious so i had to include it for the jock vibes but like cmon she’s so basketball player look at h#NO OK BC HER CHARACTER MAYA (i think is her name from the bbc show she did that i haven’t watched so we are going on vibes alone here)#HAS SAME-ISH ENERGY SO#erin kellyman#liv hewson#she drives me crazy#fan cast

okay going off what i said here:
look:
1. in a specific place, laying down normally, straight neat hair
2. in a specific place, looking into the distance, hair a little less neat
3. in the middle of nowhere, looking somewhat shocked, pretty messy hair
4. no background, looking very anguished, extremely messy hair
not to mention each variant gets notably darker and darker as well
(basically as she releases new variants they get darker, she goes more insane, and the background fades)

BOOK REVIEW: She Drives Me Crazy
★★★★★ - 5 stars
"You would think, based on the fact that I've played varsity basketball for three years now, that I know how to score a basket. You would be wrong."
Scottie Zajac lost her first basketball game with Tally since her breakup. Then, she got into a minor car accident with the person she hates the most, Irene Abraham - not that this is the first time Irene has trashed her car. To make matters even worse, their mothers do some meddling and decide the two girls are to carpool until Irene's car gets fixed. Carpooling doesn't go particularly well, with the two girls arguing like crazy due to the confinement. However, when Scottie sees an opportunity to make Tally jealous (and maybe just move up the social hierarchy of her school as well) she takes it, in the form of bribes and fake dating Irene Abraham. Yet as Irene and Scottie spend more time together, they begin to realise that maybe their dating wouldn't be as crazy as it seems and discover that they do have real feelings for each other.
Romance books that reference rom-com films are on a whole other level to other romance books, and She Drives Me Crazy is in this league of rom-coms. From 10 Things I Hate About You to Say Anything, rom-coms play different roles in the story (either being mentioned in brief passing or having a large impact on the plot).
One of the most important messages of this book is arguably unusual for a romance book because it's not just a romance book. It's a character-centric book and as a result, focuses on sports and athleticism a lot, which is where this message comes in. Cheerleading is as much of a sport as anything else; Cheerleaders are athletes. As Cheerleading is the second most important sport in the entire book, we see just why this is the case. Cheerleading requires its' athletes to be strong, good planners, organised, and good at learning choreography. Irene Abraham can be assigned to everyone single one of these attributes. Therefore it should not be discounted; it is undoubtedly a sport.
While Scottie and Irene are obviously the main characters and are great ones at that, I think it's the minor characters that really make this book so special. Where would our daring, sporty, enemies-to-lovers be without the Christmas-obsessed, spiritual best friend Honey-Belle. Scottie wouldn't be Scottie if it weren't for her relationship with her sisters, caring and being protective over each other. Dannielle and Kevin were genuinely the cutest side-plot of this entire thing - the nerds who get excited over debates and slowly fall for each other during each crisis that Scottie is undergoing. Also, the parents were the greatest comedic relief of this book - supportive of their girls and their dreams but also utterly embarrassing whenever Scottie and Irene see each other. To summarise, the characters of this book are what make it so great; the characters make you continue reading.
She Drives Me Crazy is sort of the sapphic version of Better Than The Movies. It's got rom-com references, everyone's favourite romance-obsessed ginger main character (I'm pushing a Scottie Zajac is the sporty version of Liz Buxbaum agenda), and it mixes the tropes of fake dating and enemies to lovers. I'd recommend to read during the build-up to Christmas (Christmas isn't necessarily a large part of the story, but it's when it's set and the town they live in is a bit Christmas-obsessed). If you love all that I've described, I'd definitely recommend giving this funny, witty romance a read.
