Omg I loved this book. I’m so glad I picked it up, it was sooooo worth it! I went through it really quickly even though it was a slow paced book.

Definitely not one of my favourite MZ books but still enjoyable. The first time I read it I wasn’t sure if I’d make it past the first few chapters with Dex’s insults to Iris, but pushed through and liked it. 
Unfortunately didn’t get any of the stupid grins or giggly butterflies I have from some of her other books but there were some cute and funny parts.
