Miss Kasie West has done it again! She really is the queen of cute, wholesome romcoms.

I love the childhood-friends-to-sorta-enemies-to-lovers, it's fun and creates the right amount of drama, while still being overall more lighthearted, warm and cozy. I also love that the MC, Norah, wants to go into video game design. Not a lot of books, or movies, focus on that interest, especially from a female perspective, and as a girl who games, I loved it.

I've seen this compared to The Summer I Turned Pretty, but the connection is only barely there. Belly and Conrad were never truly friends, and their relationship was significantly more dramatic and rough, whereas Norah and Skyler's relationship feels more real an natural, because they used to be genuine friends and really cared for each other.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS BOOK! I found Norah to be so relatable. I absolutely love the friendship between her and Skyler and their families. This is a really really great feel good book.
