I didn’t cry and it was not as sad as I expected it to be. Still, this was one of the best books I have ever read. I don't know if one can say this was slow burn but even if it was, I did NOT feel like that. I felt like I was rushing through the pages in a good way.
About the story: it was so fucking wholesome and cute. You see it coming but the little steps on between are soooo good.
The characters: It is just my oppinion but WTF jamie and sasha?! At the beginning all of them were so cool and I liked them. But the longer I read, the less I liked her friend group.
