The first of undoubtedly many pandemic-themed novels to come out of COVID, this story is a cheesy but enjoyable piece of YA literature. Although the book is set in 2020, a decrease in attempts at "relatable gen z" stuff would have been appreciated, as it seems to be pining for teenage relatability at some points. Not life changing, and won't read again, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it.
