Allison Raskin & Gaby Dunn are two best friends who live in Los Angeles. They started the comedy YouTube channel Just Between Us in 2014 and have since then spent far too much time together. Gaby’s journalism has appeared in pretty much every major publication and Allison has written some really funny group texts with her family. They hope to die within one hour of each other so neither has to plan a funeral. I Hate Everyone But You is their debut novel.

I can already tell that I will hate everyone but you.
Sincerely,

We're still in the same room, you weirdo.
Stop crying.

  6. In a very personal way, the book preaches what many others do: life is messy, there aren't answers to everything, and it takes time to figure out who you really are. These things are true in college, and they'll remain true for the rest of your life.
