emotional lighthearted

3.75

I was looking for a wholesome comfort-read and was not disappointed. I love the Netflix series so I was very happy that I also enjoyed the first book of the series. The book had some similarities to the series but a lot was different, so it's worth reading the books too.
The book started out to be not as wholesome as I was expecting it to be but it changed quickly, with Mel settling in her new surroundings. I love the small town setting and seeing Mel lighten up through her work. I'm sure I would have enjoyed the book less if I haven't had watched the series. Some lines were very cheesy and I really don't need to read sex scenes between two teenagers. I still overall liked the book and flew through it.

Writing wasn’t amazing, but it kept me interested, and definitely got more complex towards the end.
