Quite enjoyed this! Sometimes the humor undercut itself too much - an interesting or moving moment was lost because of an easy or crude joke, for example.
The action is exciting and interesting, the moments engaging and don’t stay too long, but long enough to stay interesting. I also quite liked the characters, each of them unique and interesting. A few of them get lost toward the end, as it begins and ends with a focus on Clay and Gabe. 
The ending lost me the most, unfortunately. It felt like a lot of the major consequences that came about during a climax were sorta hand-waved away to be fixed. It doesn’t spoil the whole journey, thankfully

Phenomenal book that I regret finishing. This book had me giggling in one chapter, then immediately panicking the next. With so many tales of "coming of age", it's fascinating to read a story of "getting the band back together one more time".

Clay Cooper is a fantastic lead, who is so human and relatable, and the entire group is just incredibly unique and I loved their interactions together along the journey.
