This is the kind of head empty heart full (aww that was cheesy sorry lol) book that I needed cause omg adorable and I loved themmm but it obviously wasn’t the pinnacle of writing lol - I know a lot of people were annoyed about how anticlimactic/how obvious the ‘plot twist’ was but tbh I don’t think it was meant to be surprising given Kits reaction to it so I didn’t mind that too much . Anyways I really enjoyed reading this and essentially read the last 250 pages or so all last night lol
- only actual complaints were that I wish it tied things up a bit better at the end - like I know it’s mostly cause there’s a Rob and Marian book coming out but damn I wish I knew more of what happened in detail nowwww 😭 lol but anyways still liked the ending :)
- and then obviously I wish there were BIPOC in this book cause everyone (as far as I know at least) is white
I’m at least glad there were multiple other intersections of identity but damn why was everyone white
