The things I liked:
- characters, I think they were well build and their actions were realistic. Ravi is such a cool guy and all of friend of Pipp. I quess the two guys friend were kind of useless but I don't mind it honestly.
- humor, I can't pinpoint exact moment or jokes but just in general there were a lot of good jokes mainly between dad and Pipp and Ravi and Pipp. I chucked a couples of times for real.
- writing, it was good, easy to understand so that's appreciated.
The only reason why it wasn't a 5 star read is because of the ending, AND DON'T GET ME WRONG I ACTUALLY KINDA LIKE IT BUT,
The thing I'm wondering is what do you think about Ravi and Pippa being together, I mean clearly that was the goal because they been practically flirting all the time (which was cute) bit I was honestly not expecting them to be official in this book I thought it's gonna be on the next book. I can't wait to start the second part!

- white savior up the wazoo. Are we not going to talk about racial profiling? No intersectional understanding of issues? No?
- slapstick diversity
- ring? Fancy? (Edit: my wife told me the author is from the UK which explains SO MUCH ffs)
- mc is an idiot masquerading as a Ivy League bound high schooler
- what high schooler is doing a CAPSTONE?
- what high schooler has time to do all the bananas sh*t unquestioned?
- HOW did the MC not end up dead with the batsh*t decisions to confront suspects ALONE
- Ethics is calling and they’d like to speak to the MC
-
-
TL;DR: it was a quick, formulaic book with poor character development, questionable motives, and a heaping scoop of racial insensitivity.
