SHAOFUAFI okay this was a ride. FALSE ADVERTISEMENT BC I WAS EXPECTING A LIGHTHEARTED BOOK. but it kind of made it well rounded that it wasnt j lighthearted??? also in the most respectful way possible this read sm like a fanfiction icl. it was easy to read ig. it was a LILLL sanist n ableist BUT it seems a lot of books are and this was one was v brief unlike others so i'll let alexis off. the ending in all honesty felt a lil rushed n honestly alexis bae i stuck w u for 50+ chapters i would not care less if u had dragged the ending out a lil bit. it kind of lost the momentum bc we all knew what was coming n we literally got hit w it. so that's a note. anyway. it's a good book. it's a great book n this was so cute!! most of the time. other times i cried. this is not a 100% lighthearted book, u have been misled. also pick a better charity next time. is that charity even a concept? u could have picked anything. it was funny tho. ALSO THE COMEBACKS/SNARKY COMMENTS HAD ME GIGGLING. this book had me giggling kicking my feet twirling my hair fr.
