I actually really enjoyed this even though the writing style bothered me a bit at first. I really liked the relationship between Coley and Curtis, I liked the dynamics between Coley and the different people she met throughout the summer and within the friend group and I enjoyed Sonya's personal development. I would recommend this and I enjoyed picturing the characters from the music video in my head while reading, it made the story feel even more real.

Liked most of it, the pacing was a little bit off and there were some set ups in sonya's part of the story that didn't really get a resolution and I would've liked to see
But honestly, I think this is meant to be a book for the people that saw the video already in their teenage years, because the whole book feels very 2010's and it's kinda nostalgic, but I'm not sure if it holds up if you aren't that attached to the characters already.
Also the whole change that Coley has near the end felt a bit rushed from me.
Still, overall I ejoyed it and would read something else from heyley if she ever published more books <3
