Loved the book in general but Shara just seemed toxic and her character changed a bit too quickly on the last few pagesbronteide's review against another edition

I really like that Chloe feels confident in herself and in her sexuality even though she's never dated anyone, that makes me feel a bit more confident in these things too.
Like, the *aesthetic* - pink and green and yellow! That's so cute and just pretty!!!
I love Rory and Smith's love story! That scene in the bookshop... And just Rory in general, writing music for his loved one since he was 13! Definitly Jess Mariano vibes.
I'm glad I read this book now, finishing my last year of high school, I think that's part of what made this experience so special to me.
There's so many wonderful scenes, I just can't ahhh
The queer found family trope! Hope I'll get to experience it haha.
Also I really like CMQ's writing. It's so detailed, I love it.
All the references to books and films and musicals! FANTHOM! I'd love to see Chloe perform Think of Me!
Overall, one of the best YA I've ever read!!
