I guess not for me? I do believe in love but this relationship didn't really sound very believable. I also feel like there were moments that were not explained AHs just briefly mentioned which were relevant to the story still

Lighthearted and fun. I liked the dual timelines between them and now. The article excerpts in between are a nice touch. 

I didn’t always like Chani, but I understood where she was. 

Gabe is a good, 3 dimensional character—not idealized, but a flawed human. 

I loved the jabs at Woody Allen and Mel Gibson. 

Quote from Gabe: “It’s weird, isn’t it?” He asked softly, “When someone thinks they know you.” (Ch 2)
