I for sure thought this book was going to be a 4 star from me. It was cute, and I found myself reading it quickly because I wanted to get to the part where they “figured it out” but it wasn’t as strong as I was hoping it would be… and the ending? The ending is what knocked it down to a 3 star for me. I think it could’ve been stronger.

great fast-paced summer book that kept me invested the whole way through. loved the romance, even though i’m not a massive fan of the whole pen pal trope. some things that they both did really annoyed me when they were arguing, but despite this, they were really cute. wish we delved a bit deeper into what was going on with the mum too

I feel like I saw this book marketed as a YA romance, and definitely don’t feel like that should be the case. Like yes, that’s on the forefront, but there are plot points of violence and trauma, and drug abuse of minors. (So just be warned) With that being said, weirdly enough I VERY much enjoyed this book. I’ve been in a horrible reading slump for months and flew through this one in 2 nights. The characters are funny, and the concept is new and fun. I loved the movie influence and the summer setting. I also live really close to where this book (basically) takes place, so it was fun imagining basically where I live. For me, the darker plot points I mentioned felt a bit random and unnecessary. But overall the characters were well written and that’s always my main thing. Gonna look into picking up her other books!
