A USA TODAY and New York Times bestseller

Perfect for fans of Kasie West and Jenn Bennett, this “sweet and funny” (Kerry Winfrey, author of Waiting for Tom Hanks) teen rom-com follows a hopelessly romantic teen girl and her cute yet obnoxious neighbor as they scheme to get her noticed by her untouchable crush.

Perpetual daydreamer Liz Buxbaum gave her heart to Michael a long time ago. But her cool, aloof forever crush never really saw her before he moved away. Now that he’s back in town, Liz will do whatever it takes to get on his radar—and maybe snag him as a prom date—even befriend Wes Bennet.

The annoyingly attractive next-door neighbor might seem like a prime candidate for romantic comedy fantasies, but Wes has only been a pain in Liz’s butt since they were kids. Pranks involving frogs and decapitated lawn gnomes do not a potential boyfriend make. Yet, somehow, Wes and Michael are hitting it off, which means Wes is Liz’s in.

But as Liz and Wes scheme to get Liz noticed by Michael so she can have her magical prom moment, she’s shocked to discover that she likes being around Wes. And as they continue to grow closer, she must reexamine everything she thought she knew about love—and rethink her own ideas of what Happily Ever After should look like.

Perfect Repair
Color: Cherry, Size: 2.4"x 15ft
We purchased a used secretary with hutch, and it had some damage on the veneered decoration on the hutch doors. I discovered this product and ordered the closest match I could find. It was easy to cut to fit and the price was amazing. It looks so good that you could not easily find the repair and I am very happy.

Professional look overall
Color: Birch, Size: 1/2"x 25ft
Installing the edging worked best with a heat gun vs a blow dryer, Adhesive was average, some areas adhered well while some spots kept lifting. The areas where the edging is connected to create the continuous link are very visible and will not blend well when painted. I had more waste by trying to avoid these sections. The edging is easy to cut. I used 220 sand paper to blend the areas where the edging was too wide for the project edge after trimming. Be careful not to over sand the edging. I found both the 1/2 in and 3/4 in are both wider than 1/2 in and 3/4 in plywood. Expect extra time to trim the excess. The edging is flexible and easy to use when working with curved edges. Overall, the edging still gave my projects a professional look.

A Good Solution for Rough Edges of Wood.
Color: Birch, Size: 1"x 25ft, Color: Birch, Size: 1"x 25ft
This is a great product. We needed to recover the booth in our motorhome because the faux leather is peeling. The booth is made of plywood and has rough edges. We opted to cover the booth with heavy wallpaper, but needed something to cover the rough edges. This product is really affordable and very easy to use. It adheres pretty well. We had planned on painting the wood veneer edging, but we decided that the wood tone fit right in with the rest of the trim in the motorhome so we left it raw. While I bought 1" because that is mostly what we needed, some other areas were only 3/4" wide. It was so easy to run an Exacto knife along the extra edge and trim it smoothly.

You get what you pay for. Won't order again.
Color: Birch, Size: 1/2"x 100ft, Color: Birch, Size: 1/2"x 100ft
Inconsistent width, and soft glue. The veneer is so thin you can see the plywood layers under it in places. The 1/2" width varies from 0.55" to 0.45" and was too narrow to cover the edge of my 0.46" plywood in spots. Even when fully cooled (left some pieces overnight before trimming) the glue is soft and tacky, and loads up on the edge banding trimmer blade. I was able to cover all my pieces, so I still gave it 3 stars. But I won't order it again. It's not worth the couple of dollars I saved. I also ordered a roll of 3/4 and threw it away. Same issues, and the color was way too light (looked more like raw maple than birch)
