I really enjoyed this novel. Neil was insufferable at the start, but I liked his growth. There were moments where I thought he was going to be on the ace spectrum, demi or something, which would've been cool but didn't happen. I was a little surprised that the main characters were high schoolers instead of college kids, but that does align with Deaver's previous books. Speaking of Deaver, I adore their writing style, and it shines in this book. Overall, this book was quite enjoyable.

I really enjoyed reading this. It was very cute and I like the growth that the mc underwent. He was very self centered and insufferable at moments but that’s part of his growth as a character. I also enjoyed reading them fall in love. ( also a very quick read! Once I started I didn’t put it down)
