Brought me back to my childhood. I never finished the series so time to continue.

It is such a cute but sad story.

It has its issues, between belly being a bit annoying and the boys being possessive but it’s cute especially for the time.

Listened to this on Scribd but the narrator was terrible no emotion so I had to listen to it on 2x - 2.5x speed so it actually became engaging ahah


Review 2022
New Narrator! It’s Lola Tung who plays Belly in the show! Absolutely amazing

While this book was slightly uneventful, I’m excited to continue the series to see where the characters go. The time-jumps were slightly hard to follow while listening to the audiobook. It might be easier to follow along while reading it.

this book is such a comfort read, I love susannah so dearly and will completely want to be butter up by her presence, she individually gave me attentive, valid and lovable vibes

was okay, but I liked the show better lol
I found belly to be more annoying in the book and if I remember correctly it was written through her inner monologue and I didn’t love that
