Seventeen-year-old Peyton Lane is a tall girl. So tall, it's the only thing most people notice about her.
On impulse, she accepts a bet to prove she can be as attractive and desirable as other girls. Now she just needs to go on four dates (including the prom) with one of the guys on her very short list of very tall boys.
Number one on the list is Jay Young - the new guy that Peyton already likes way more than she should. Because not only is Jay already taken, but he's also breaking her Law of Tall Girls, and he's determined to discover the awful secret she's been hiding for most of her life.
Funny and romantic, The Law of Tall Girls is a feel-good, heart-warming read for anyone who's ever felt different, or like they just don't belong.
This young adult contemporary romance will appeal to fans of Kasie West, Stephanie Perkins, Jenny Han, Julie Buxbaum and Morgan Matson.

I'm so glad I picked this up. I thought this was "just" another YA novel about coming to terms with being different, but it's so much more than that. It's a tale of love, family and fitting in. A great romance that made me feel so many emotions. It reminded me that I too tend to, not stare necessarily, but look at super tall, super skinny, super anything people and how annoying that must be over time. It also (and I know I say this about every other book I read) hit me on a very personal level. So personal in fact that I had a life-changing realisation about my own family during one particular scene. However, I do have some small issues with the story: I don't like when you can see a conflict coming a mile ahead. You know which one I mean. The obvious, unavoidable one. I was waiting for it to happen already so we could progress from there. Everything resolved a bit too easily in the end. That left me with many happy feelings, but it wrapping up perfectly is a tad unrealistic. Life rarely works out that way. Still, I enjoyed this much more that I thought I would and will keep thinking about it for some time to come.
