4.0

I really liked Max and Sara! This book and their relationship was really cute! I found myself really rooting for them through their stubbornness about not having a real relationship. This book had a lot more emotion than I was anticipating and was great to read! I love when I get to watch a couple slowly fall for each other while trying to convince themselves that it’s only temporary.

My favorite part was the third act conflict. Not because I particularly liked what broke them up (because I didn’t), but because of how much emotion I felt in the scene in the apartment (iykyk), which I would definitely include quotes of here if they weren’t major spoilers!

Does this book hold up in 2024? Not really, but if you suspend your disbelief, it’s great!
