I absolutely love this book!  I read the first book in high school and 9 years later I'm still just as in love with the plot.  I love the world building, I love the way the author writes (I even read her acknowledgements!), I love America, May, Marlee, Aspen, and Maxon.  I honestly can't get enough!

This book was most definitely enjoyable. I genuinely couldn’t put it down and I am now writing this at 1:30am lol. It’s a fast lighthearted read and was just a good time. Technically, this book is not very good. It’s not bad but America can be very “not like other girls” and the writing certainly isn’t anything special. But, oh my god, it is so entertaining. It was cringey and funny and frustrating. Definitely something I would have gotten more out of if I read it when I was a bit younger but Maxon still got me giggling and shit so it’s fine 🤪 mostly what I got out of this is that friends to lovers is just the superior trope.
