The Olive Theory: The idea that opposites attract; suggesting that people with opposite preferences are more compatible, like a person who hates olives and one who loves them.~Amica Ricci is a normal girl.She is popular, gets good grades, and keeps her mouth shut. But in reality, she is hiding, terrified of who she is, constantly worrying about what her peers think of her while trying to win their approval. She has carefully constructed a person to fit what others want of her and hopes to win the affection of Peter, her dream guy, with this fake person she has become.Michael is the complete opposite.He couldn't care less about what others think of him. In his mind, everyone around him is a mindless idiot for following the superficiality of popularity and the social hierarchy of high school. He is too focused on other things, like improving his mental health for his mother as he deals with the aftermath of his sister's death and the absence of his father, to worry about things like relationships or doing well in school.And Amica can't stand him.To her, all he is is her best friend's infuriatingly handsome and annoying boyfriend. But with what seems to be a push of fate, their lives become more intertwined, and everything Amica initially loathes about him, the easy charm, the casual irreverence, starts to chip away at her carefully constructed world. The lines between friends and more blur as Amica and Michael navigate love, loss, and the messy complexity of being true to oneself in a world that demands conformity. The Olive Theory is a story of opposites attracting will challenge readers to rethink their perceptions and embrace the beauty of embracing the unexpected.xoxo, Sarah RobinsonCredits to the writers of How I Met Your Motherโ€ฆ
