I LOVE THIS BOOK. I love Eliza's character development and just how this book flowed! Absolutely phenomenal.

For some reason, I didn't like this book as much as I hoped I would. I'm not even sure what I disliked about the book. It seemed to drag on for too long, I found it hard to relate to a schoolgirl, the emotions just didn't quite do it for me. It's unfortunate, but this is a very average book in my eyes.

i am really conflicted. i liked the anxiety and ptsd representation, i think they were done very well, and i liked the love story, as well as the love interest. the story itself is not one that many would consider gripping, but i was really into it and i finished the book in almost one sitting.
i started having some issues when the kind-of-plot-twist happened. i think the way the love interest reacted to it was absolutely awful. i understand the author maybe wanted to portray the protagonists as real teenagers with human flaws but i feel like this could have been avoided because it was so out of character for him.
i enjoyed the story nonetheless but i don’t really think it’s that memorable; i had very high expectations because this has been so hyped up and it didn’t hold up to them, but i still liked it.

I didn’t expect it to be like how it was, there was depth — you have to read between the lines because this entire book is so insightful that you finish it with a new perception of the world and everything that encompasses it.

I feel like had I read this when I was a lot younger, I maybe would have loved it. I thought it was a good read, but nothing to make it a great one. Or a favorite. Or to fangirl like everyone else is on the internet.
Also, maybe it’s because I’m a parent but Eliza surely felt some sort of way about her parents wanting her off her phone or away from her computer to go out and touch some grass. And sure they did her wrong later in the book, but I fear she didn’t really apologize for acting so entitled.

I really enjoyed this. We follow Eliza who is the famous content creator of a web series but noone know who she is. One day she befriends the new kid at school and it turns out that he is one of the most known fanfiction writers for Eliza's web series.
This book tackled a lot of important and deep subjects that I loved exploring through Eliza's eyes such as do authors owe their readers, anxiety, online friendships, etc.
