Here's to Us by Becky Albertalli, Adam Silvera
4.0
3½, rounded up to 4.
This was fine, even good in places, but nowhere as good as the first one.
I was hesitant to read this, because, even if I was frustrated with the ending of What If It's Us, I thought it was good 'cause *slight spoiler* happy endings doesn't necessarily mean the characters have to end up with a specific person. It's okay to have a good life without having a partner.
I know the characters are teens, though older teens than in WIIU, but there was just too much unnecessary drama - you know the kind, 30 seconds of communication would have cleared a lot up.
It seemed like the authors wouldn't let any of the characters be left behind, so in the last 50 pages or so, EVERYTHING is tied up nicely, they all get their happy endings, yada yada. I don't mind a happy ending, but it's just too cutesy when done like this.
