Chapter 41 Summary: “Fizzy”

It hurts Fizzy to look at Connor. She decides she hates love and outlines a book about a woman who, after a rejection, throws herself off a cliff and into a bed of pillows. The date with Isaac and her parents is great, and on mic, her mother tells Fizzy that she should date Isaac. Fizzy is looking forward to her confessional with Connor so she can be alone with him, but he cancels. She collides with him on the way to the second date with Evan and realizes that she has been left questioning her identity; she feels Connor appreciates her simply for herself. Liz, her makeup artist, guesses that Fizzy wishes she could pick Connor.

Chapter 42 Summary: “Fizzy”

Fizzy enters the trailer for her confessional with Connor. She tests her mic by saying “Down with the patriarchy, up with romance, let women love who and what they love” (329).

The conversation is painful for her. When Connor asks how she’s feeling about the final date, she says she’s relieved: “I can stop pretending I want someone other than you” (331). Connor turns off the camera, and Fizzy says she misses him. He confesses he’s not over her.

Fizzy and Evan go on a double date with Jess and River, and it is fun and easy.
