Unfortunately, I just couldn't get in to it. I'm not a fan of pop culture references even in present day stories and there were just so many of them. I was also a lot more interested in the superhero aspect than the romance aspect and so much of the book was focused on the love triangle between Faith, Dakota, and Johnny. Even while acknowledging that love triangles aren't fun! I was fully skimming by the last 40% or so, but I don't even know if we got a resolution with Johnny or if Faith just started spending more time with Dakota and didn't mention Johnny again post-corn maze.
I think this book may be a hit for someone else, just not for me :/

It was way too quick paced to the point I just didn’t care about anything that happened. The dialogue was stiff and just overall felt like it was for a much younger audience rather than a YA book.
The friendships and side characters just kinda fell flat. Especially when the plot twist happened in chapters 24/25. I just honestly didn’t care at that point what happened. Even the ending seem so rushed and I don’t understand why.
I will say the plus sized rep was nice along with some of the queer rep but that was about it for me.
