I thought this was quite cute! Just worlds and worlds better than Betting on You, which I read last year. Not too high stakes, everyone getting cute little feelings everywhere. I did feel like it was a little long, which made it feel kind of like a chronology of events strung together instead of a plot developing. And I feel like some of the Cute or Embarassing Moments could have been saved for another book?
