I tried reading this book over the summer and had absolutely no drive or motivation to read it so I stopped reading it after like 50 pages. Today, Jan. 10th, 2022, I tried to read this book again and actually managed to get through it. Suffice to say I love this book. Its familiar setting (downtown Seattle), amazing characters, and totally awesome plot made it a quick love.
Not only was the plot amazing beyond belief; the writing was fantastic. It was lighthearted and sweet, a tad cliche, but totally and utterly amazing. It touched on some heavier topics but reacted and portrayed them in a respectful way without losing it's lighthearted atmosphere.
Rowan (or Artoo), was a fucking fantastic main character. She stood up for herself and fought against some gender-norms, even if it was in a small way. As well as she argued against bias' and double standards. She had these moments where I could relate to her and I think that really tied me to this book. It was nice and honestly relieving to hear (read) her stand up against some of these things.
