Cute. Nothing out of the ordinary.
While I read many romance novels, I never romanticize my life, so it was a bit difficult to relate to Amy's quest. Other than that, the two are so meant for each other.
May I interest you in?

Fun, feel-good story

Really wanted to like this book, but somehow all the tropes that I liked didn't for me in this one, and my main issue I think were the characters who felt one dimensional and tropey. So sadly, i am not going to continue with this.

This was ok for what it is: a young adult romantic comedy.
It’s littered with what’s supposed to be book and teen lingo, which sometimes is cringy. But overall, it’s a light hearted story where the nerdy dorky girls ends up with the hot class clown. There is some sexual content (which I don’t think it needed), so young readers and parents should be aware.
I would recommend this to high school readers and teens with a parent about to remarry after the death or divorce of their first spouse. I might also reccomend to a teen whose parent lost a job. These are two conflicts that each of the main characters are facing, and I feel like having a story that shows the reality of processing these things might help some readers. Although again, I would want them about minor sexual content.
I didn’t care for the narrator of the audiobook, but that has more to do with personal preference. She wasn’t boring, I was just annoyed at some parts of her performance (but that could also be because I am not a young adult yet this is a YA novel).
Story structure is sound, the action is entertaining, there is obvious character growth, and except for the cringy slang/lingo at times, the characters are lovable.

Unfortunately one of my biggest book icks is to rely on other media too heavily. If a book mentions movie and books too much in a way that takes up more than a moment, I kinda think it’s a waste. And… pop vinyls?! How did pops end up in my escape of reality?
