This was a cute book. I know that might seem a weird description but that's what comes to mind when I think of the book as a whole. Some YA books are focused on a certain age range or just young people and some YA books are about a young person but are relatable to people that are considered YA. I would say this book is for a certain age range. This book had a decent ending but I felt majority of the book was predictable so much so that I found myself rolling my eyes once or twice and thinking saw it coming from a mile away. I know this review might seem bad but despite it being predictable it was still a nice read.
