Worth the hype! This was funny and introspective with an engaging cast of characters. I loved going with Phoebe on her journey and felt very connected with her. I do think some of her realizations were a little too convenient and her growth faster than would be realistic but I’ll attribute that to the limitations of a <400 page book set over the span of one week. It had themes surrounding honesty, choices, and aging that were thoughtfully explored, and overall I really enjoyed it!
