It was such a sweet book overall. Reed is the ultimate book boyfriend.

I just didn't love the chatGPT mention so much. I always get the ick when an author mentions things of current pop culture. But I know it might not affect other readers.

I liked the idea and the concept of the book but the fact that they were high-schoolers (!!!!) was very confusing. This book should have been set in university.
The whole plot happens in 2 weeks.
