I laughed, I cried, I enjoyed the spice. This book made me laugh out loud and made me feel all the feels. It is well-written and very relatable in many senses. I love that Shay is a teacher and that she wears quirky earrings and she’s unafraid of being herself. I also fell in love with the foul-mouthed pirate child Gennie. She was astute and full of wisdom beyond her years, while also being a hilarious kid. Grumpy sunshine and friends to lovers is always a good combination for me for a romance so I liked that too!
