This book had me feeling all the feels. From happy to tears rolling down my face to kicking my feet and feeling giddy. I really enjoyed it! 

Plus, it was so cool that it all takes place in one day. The scavenger hunt was fun to read and the catching feelings made it even better. I loved how the romance bloomed into what it became. 

It would've been a 5 star if it weren't for the ending. I wasn't very appreciative of that. I also found Rowan's repetitive view on misogyny a bit annoying. Despite these things it was still a great book!

Cute lil high school YA romance academic rivals to lovers slop - the most common complaint is that they randomly decide to bring up social issues to talk about, which is true, though valedictorians lowkey speak like that IRL. Makes me wish I got a cute message in my yearbook.
