We Used to Be Friends by Amy Spalding

 Not only is this title the same as one of my favorite iconic songs from the OC it is also just as fantastic! 

This dual narrative involves to besties Kat and James who are going through their senior year. It is an authentic story of what happens sometimes in friendships when we don't listen to words unspoken and hidden cues from our loved ones. Kat becomes involved with a female Quinn who she adores and James feels like an outsider. Kat can't quite wrap her head around James feelings and actions. James is currently dealing with her decision to break up with her wonderful boyfriend as she struggles with her parents' divorce. In this high school tale of friendship and coming into adulthood these two ladies unravel the truth about their differences as senior year comes to a close. 

A bit confusing to read as an  audio book but entertaining just as well.
