I enjoyed this a lot. I liked the dual POV narrative and thought the two plot strands wove together really well. I really love Oseman's writing. I always end up feeling so attached to her characters and she writes about friendship so well. I also felt like she captured the experience of being a fan brilliantly. She's an author I only discovered in 2019 and she's fast become one of my favourites. I've read all of her books now and I've loved nearly all of them.
