This is such a sweet story! It's got a strong sense of place, and I love the found-family aspect. It seems a bit too feel-good to be realistic, but it's fun to read. The only downside for me was the lack of diversity. Antoni is the only real representation, and he fits the gay best friend trope—I wish he had been fleshed out more fully. Other than that, a fantastic start to the series!
