This feels like a really good summer read, the cover is stunning and gives off the perfect vibes for the book. The narrator was amazing, his voice was perfect and he really brought the characters to life.
As someone who isn’t a fan of love triangles (mostly because they are just two people pining after one person and not an actual triangle) this was a nice touch to it. Harry meeting someone new and clearly having good chemistry with from the start. It was healthy and cute. Then there was Harry’s ex who, well, was less of a favorite of mine.
Overall this was a cute summer read and I really enjoyed how everything turned out in the end.

I had a lot of trouble loving this book about an aspiring teen writer navigating his dreams and relationships, but it seems interesting. I enjoyed the characters and their relationship development. I didn't enjoy the high levels of self-pitying drama, the screenplay chapters that didn't add anything to my understanding of the characters, or the use of being drunk as a major plot point more than once (which felt lazy).
