This book cured my inner teenager :) 

Would’ve very much been a 5-star read but the laughter-heavy, dialogue-filled pages brought it down. Seriously, am I that melancholic or is everyone in this book laughing at anything and everything? And I’m still on the fence about that ending. Will be picking up the sequel though!

Very immersive, cinematic. A little dreamlike, and very sad. Not a strong plot, but loveable characters and engaging style.
