I needed to test the theory that I automatically love any love story set in Michigan. I do not. It turns out that there has to be believable character development as well.

The way the flashbacks were written was so clunky and really took away from the characters' arcs. There was too much going on including waaaay too many characters who all felt flat and unnecessary.
