5.0

Oh wow. This book. I loved it. When it comes to the plot, I don't think there's anything too special and at times it was a bit predictable, but everything about the characters I just loved. I loved and related a lot to Cath. Levi, obviously, was wonderful and I could not stop thinking about this book all day - I just had to get home and read it!

I am SO glad I read Carry On before I read this. Thankfully Carry On is still its own seperate feeling and experience from this book. I enjoyed it well enough, but really it was nothing special? I liked the fanfiction aspect, it was cool to have that to relate to and see her put effort into it, but other than that it was a good new adult book

This book is just reeeeeally good. It isn't mindblowing or the best book I've ever read but it feels like one of those books you can come back to again and again just for the characters and the general feeling of the book. It is just such a lovely and cozy book that I just love. 4,2/5

I can't say I agree with 18 year old me, that this is a really good book. I mean there is nothing wrong with it persay but there is something about how judgemental Cath is during most of this book that throws me off. But it is still a cozy book about becoming yourself and letting people in. 3.5/5
