I finished this book about a week ago so my memory of it isn't too fresh. The first 60 pages were interesting. I was wondering how the characters were even going to get together considering the circumstances
Jacob being with Bethany's best friend in the beginning and all
. I was almost about to stop because I was fearful as to where the author was taking this premise. I'm glad I continued because she actually ended up making things work out. Bethany and Jacob are literally so adorable. I'm not that far off from their age so I found it so comfortable and relatable reading about teenage love. I like how the author highlighted a lot of worries a person can potentially have when entering a romantic relationship. I found myself relating to soooo many things both characters were saying. Sometimes it felt like the book was talking to me in a way. It felt so nice to be so seen. It was nice to see relationship anxiety be depicted (from both the guy and the girl) in such a relatable way. Also, I really enjoyed the amount of representation there was in this book. I honestly want to find more like that because it was just so refreshing to read. Overall, a fun read! Definitely recommend it (especially if you don't mind YA)!
