Levi and Macallan have been best friends since seventh grade when he moved to their Wisconsin town from California.  He’s a former surfer dude with long blonde hair; she’s the serious student just getting over her mom’s death.  A shared love for zany British comedies begins years of friendship, that only grows stronger, no matter what their peers say about boys and girls not being able to be friends.  As the years go by, though, their friendship begins to stand in the way of prospective boyfriends and girlfriends.  Nothing says unapproachable like a constantly-there buddy of the opposite sex who always gets your jokes.  Besides, no one gets Levi like Macallan, and no one gets Macallan like Levi.  Is it time to let the friendship go, or time to take it to the next level?  Read Better Off Friends by Elizabeth Eulberg.  (Booktalk by : Mary Cockrell, James Island Middle School, South Carolina Junior Book Award)
