Libro davvero carino, diciamo che si capisce presto chi è il ragazzo giusto ma la storia è scorrevole, intrigante e assolutamente un finale adorabile!!!

DID NOT FINISH

Dnf, this is a true young adult book. If I were in high school or college I’d probably like it. I also looked up spoilers to see who she ended up with and that didn’t incentivize me to finish.

Such a sweet little love story without all the spice of the typical “romance”. Loved it!

This book was really good. I couldn't seem to put it down. It's so cute and sweet, and obviously, we all need a Phillip.  I loved the characters, and the story was great. I will say that sometimes I felt like it was a lot of just random talking, but I know it's to build the story, so I powered through. I will 100% be finishing the series.

The MC is waaaayy to childish I want to strangle her.

This book takes you from their childhood through post college. Most of it being high school age. The relationships between the three main characters are cute and sweet. I definitely wished I had these two guys as my best friends growing up. I had my own idea early on who "that boy" would be. There are a few twists and turns along the way, keeps you wondering. Real life things happen. I loved the style and flow of the book. Overall a really great read! Highly recommend, sweet coming of age story.
