Quick and easy summer read. It has YA vibes with young adult characters - the spice is all fade to black. It’s sad, touching, and sweet at different points. I found it really enjoyable and once I got into it, it was a really quick read.

It's just one of those books that really get to you. The characters seem so alive and you just want them all to have a good time. One of my favorite books of 2024 so far!

A sweet, emotional, quick read. I had a hard time feeling invested in the point of conflict but it was fine. They didn’t even break that many rules.
