I loved it!! I thought it was gonna be cheesy, but I was blown away!

If I’m being completely honest here, I did watch the show before I read the book. HOWEVER, they were different enough that I think of them as two different things; but I also see where they are the same and that keeps them connected in my mind.

I definitely recommend both watching the show and reading the book!

Edit: looking back, it wasn’t as amazing to me as i first thought. i was caught up in the show lol but i didn’t hate it!

The book is cute and fun. I like the plot I guess but mostly I just feel like this girl is a mess and needs to be a little bit less self centered, but also idk. Who isn’t at 14
