This book was mostly very enjoyable. The setting/scenes very much felt like summer. We were rooting for the main characters most of the time & overall it was just an enjoyable read, with a few exceptions.
1) The "mine, Felix" line was *exhausting.* It literally had me cringing by the end of the book. Idk who told the author to go in on that line as if it wasn't going to get old, but it was so extremely over done.
And
2) The last 40ish pages of this book felt like pulling my eyelashes out one by one. I would have been done with this book 2 weeks ago had it just ended where it naturally wanted to. It drug on so unnecessarily, I didn't even want to read the epilogue. I'm glad I read it all, but I'd be lying if I didn't say I was skimming through the last 5-10 pages. Like we get it, let it end already. Just felt exhausting after the climax came & went. I enjoyed the setting & characters personality a ton, it just unfortunately had some agitating intricacies that could have been avoided in editing. Due to this I will probably be putting off reading some of her other works until another summer/year.
