While I'm not the target audience (aka a teenager), Anna Garcia managed to make me feel invested in the whole drama of this story. I cringed when I was supposed to cringe, I gasped when I was supposed to gasp. I liked how the author handled the messiness of the first relationships and the complicated feeling MC had concerning her family and culture. I would have liked a bit of more closure with a certain character, but to honest, I was fine with the way the book ended.
