Not as good as the first one, but that's just because that's so hard to follow up. I really like how the author handled so many things in the story: virginity and sex, fostering, freedom in teenage years, confidence in yourself and your decisions, grief, friendship, mental health, etc. It was a YA book that while the overall plot conditions different feel realistic the characters and their reactions and emotions, did. I can definently see it resonating, heck it resonated with me now.

Even though I was expecting some of the plot points I still cried, screamed, and was totalled pulled along for the ride. 

I was nervous on how she was going to be able to wrap it all up together. Shannon's past, Johnnie's future. But I am stasfied and happy for them and all their people.

Love the banter but sometimes it just draaaags on and on in circles and repeats the same thing over and over again, kind of exhausting
