The first half of this was so sweet and swoony, while also touching on some grief that Meredith and her family are coming out of- literally so good!! But I really don’t like the miscommunication trope, and the YA nature of this book came out in full force in the immaturity in Mer and Wit’s communication closer to the end of the week. But I adore their relationship and enjoyed the atmosphere of Martha’s Vineyard, with the added backdrop of the assassin game (one I have played too). I wish Mer had more character development as she came to terms with her grief. And I also hated Luli and she made me angry. This closed door, new adult/YA romance was a great summer read.
