 I love the way Casey McQuiston writes and portrays her characters/ the story line. It just flowed so smoothly, and really was a pleasant read!

I liked the plot line, the scavenger hunt and people who don't know each other very well, working together to find Shara. It did kind of reminded me of the plot in Paper Towns, but gay, and better (sorry Mr Green).

This was the best YA I’ve read in a while. It was cute and predictable in the best way possible, where most of the story wasn’t actually predictable. The diversity felt real and I genuinely enjoyed and appreciated that.

Enjoyed this read but some of the things some of the characters did were questionable.

i found the start really slow to get into and looking for shara felt like it dragged on a bit too long. not my favourite book but it did get better towards the end. i liked smith and rory’s storyline a lot and also loved the les mums
