THIS BOOK!!! I loved it, it was def a coming of age novel and was totally an amazing read. I cannot wait to buy the sequel and read it immediately!! The characters were likeable and you feel empathy for what they're dealing with. Ari definitely sorta had a personality similar to Holden from CITR. It was just amazing!! (I'm reading it for school so it kinda has to be on my mind) I just liked them together and I wished that there was a dual pov so we can see what Dante thought as well. But it was amazing nonetheless.
