Everything you need to understand or teach She Gets the Girl by Alyson Derrick and Rachael Lippincott.
Derrick and Lippincott’s novel is playful yet unflinching as it explores a budding sapphic romance. Alex and Molly are two people who appear to be opposites, but learn through time and friendship that they share mutual pain in their isolation. They both enter college looking for a fresh start, and find it in the unexpected place of one another. Set on the campus of the University of Pittsburgh, thought of only as Pitt, the novel explores themes of confidence, friendship, financial security, home, and the power of literature and stories.
