“Well, That Was Unexpected” is a delightful, hilarious, and captivating love letter to Indonesia, coming of age in a large meddlesome family, and the thrill of finding your person where you least expect it! Written by Ali Hazelwood, this book follows the story of Kiki Siregar, a seventeen-year-old gamer girl with confidence to boot. She can't help but be totally herself, except when she's online. Her secret? She plays anonymously as a guy to avoid harassment from other male players. Even her online best friend, a cinnamon roll of a teen boy who plays under the username Sourdawg, doesn't know her true identity. Which is fine, because Kiki doesn't know his real name either, and it's not like they're ever going to cross paths IRL.

Until she transfers to an elite private school for her senior year and discovers that Sourdawg goes there, too. But who is he? How will he react when he finds out Kiki's secret? And what happens when Kiki realizes she's falling for her online BFF?

The book is a hilarious and romantic send-up to "You've Got Mail," featuring a gamer girl with a secret identity and the online bestie she's never met IRL. It explores themes of self-discovery, acceptance, and the power of online connections. With its witty dialogue, relatable characters, and heartwarming storyline, "Well, That Was Unexpected" is a must-read for anyone who loves a good laugh and a touching love story.
