I'm always surprised when the books I added to my endless tbr first end up being amazing reads. I don't know why my brain assumes that 12 year old me didn't have taste in picking interesting books 😂
But also... They shouldn't have called this a diary as there is nothing remotely similar to a diary in this. I swear Charlotte only mentions she's writing in a diary like four times. This is 100% just a regular story being told in real time for the characters.
