So much fun!! Read it in one sitting, which is just what I needed after being frustrated with my slow progress in another book. This one was fun with great characters! I just want more of their story, which is a great way to feel about a book!

I really appreciate the way Davis was able to bring her characters to life in a way that made me so invested what I couldn't stop reading. This was one of very few books out there that I read and immediately thought "Well, this would make an excellent show," and then could imagine all the other characters' stories spinning out from it. I was particularly invested in Brandy's best friend Shai. 

It didn't hurt that the whole book was set over the course of a single night and much of it takes place around a carnival, which is one of my favorite places, too. She even almost had them start on The Zipper, and boy do I have a good date story about that ride 😂

Anyway, I can't wait to read more of Davis' work. What a delight!
