Li, Ebony Ladelle, and Baby Driver.Best friends Loli Crawford and Ryan Pope have earned their nickname, the “Bonnie and Clyde of Woolridge High.” From illegal snack swapping in kindergarten to reckless car surfing in high school, they have been causing trouble in their uptight California town forever. But everyone knows that the mischief starts with Loli; when it comes to chasing thrills, drama, and adventure, no one is on her level.At least until Loli throws the wildest party Woolridge High has ever seen and meets X, a strange, unidentified boy in the coat closet, who challenges her to a game she can’t refuse—one that promises to put her love of danger to the ultimate test.Loli and X begin an anonymous correspondence, exchanging increasingly risky missions. Loli’s fun has always been free and easy, but things spin out of control as she attempts to one-up X’s every move. As Loli risks losing everything—including her oldest friend—she’ll face the most dangerous thing of all: falling for someone she shouldn’t.

"In short, I was just meh with this book. Loli is very much an adrenaline junkie and completely selfish and disregards everything. From her physical safety, her friends,to expensive cars, this girl didn't gaf! And at her big age, although she's still a kid, I expected way more common sense than she displayed. maybe I'm just too old but I couldn't get into this one.<br/><br/>Then the character X was giving me Heather vibes but it didn't go far enough so it didn't fit this light hearted unrealistic foolishness."
"<br/> Ride or Die is a fantastic novella, and we continue on Wynter and Jude's journey. It's not a standalone, and Girl Obsessed should be read first. <br/><br/> Love can change a man, and boy has Jude change to an extraordinary man. I didn’t see some event coming, and I loved seeing that side of him. Wynter is still the obsessed girl we all fell in love with. However, she is edgier and more lethal. Some ghosts from the past threaten their future.<br/> <br/><br/>Ride or Die is well written and will captivate you from page one. It's a real page-turner and steamy."
