I loved this book, I took my time with it and found the audiobook version way easier to go through because of the excellent narrator. I am docking half a star from the review because of the way Catalina's issues with what is hinted at to be eating disorder behaviours as well as OCD behaviours are simply brushed over and more or less dismissed. That didn't sit right with me. I love that Aaron was there for her and helped her and he was fantastic and noticed things and while I understand that this is not the main plot of the book, it shouldn't (in my opinion) have just been brushed over since it's something that hinders Lina's life in one way or another and is not just a one-time occurence.
