emotional funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This book has so many elements that work for me. Two people trying to get their lives together, deal with (or maybe just ignore) past traumas and grief, and navigate getting to know each other after kind-of hating/judging/being attracted to each other in college. Here for the small town interpersonal entanglements, delightful side characters, misinterpretations (even if I wish characters would just talk to each other), with a side of writer's block shenanigans.
