I shockingly loved this! It felt like a story within a story, and I loved seeing Iris and Stevie fall in love as it felt natural, even the third-act breakup, which was a shock for me as I usually get bored with them.
The only bit I didn't fully adore was the beginning, which I felt was a bit slow, but that could also be because I didn't read the first book (Delilah Green Doesn't Care) in this series, and I DNF'd the second (Astrid Parker Doesn't Fail). I fully understood the characters and their relationships even though I didn't read the previous books in this series.
I found the way it used Iris's story at the end of the book to be amazing, and I couldn't put it down when it hit that point!
