There was just something missing from this. I really liked Georgie and Levi as individual characters and their personal developments. They were grappling with real identity shifts as they outgrew their young adults selves and tried to settle into what they each think it meant to be a Real Adult. Or at least they consider what they need to face from their respective pasts to do so. All that was compelling. I just didn’t buy into the romance on the book’s timeline. The town itself and all of the side characters felt like Schitt’s Creek the way everyone knows each others business. I feel like this could have been stronger if it was general fiction/slice of life story. Loved Georgie’s dad’s nicknames for her. Didn’t love the audiobook narration I might have enjoyed it more if I read a physical copy.
