So very good! The third act conflict felt true to the characters and was well written, not just some random miscommunication like some romance books. I love the communally theme and the lack of damsel-in-distress storytelling. Only reason I didn’t finish it one day is because I have a toddler who wants to read his books. But it’s that good.

There was so much hype surrounding this book, but I was so disappointed. 

There were too many characters with too-elaborate backstories, making this hard to follow. The writing was generally good, but there were too many sub-plots for my taste. 

What really ruined it for me was the epilogue. I was really disappointed with how the book ended and felt it was very out-of-character.

I can see why this is so popular. It’s very GenZ friendly. I liked how healthy they are about communication, but I was pretty casual about finishing it. 
I can see this being a movie or a series.
