Really fantastic - Thomas just gets better and better, and this story has so much going on. I really appreciated the ending (which kept me up far too late as I got into those final chapters). This is a great read.

Loved the pov. Rare to read a teen pregnancy from the male perspective. 

I devoured this book in 2 days. I loved following Maverick and Lisa’s early years. Highly recommended if you enjoyed The Hate U Give.

Angie Thomas is just so talented!!! I loved this book so much, it expanded on the story and characters perfectly and I cant wait to see what she writes next!
