Nostalgic, fun, and lighthearted. Had to read it to keep myself from drowning in the TSITP Conrad Fisher TikTok Edits. I definitely don’t remember reading this ~7 years ago, but they did great turning this into a TV series with additions and changes that made sense.

Belly - young and naive, has always loved Conrad and says she always will
Conrad - broody, angsty teen can’t communicate but carrying a lot for a teenage boy to deal with 
Jeremiah - just there and goofy

It’s hard to separate from the show, but I enjoyed it overall. It doesn’t feel like very much really happened..? I’m waiting to get to the meat of it that I know is coming because of the show lol
