Such a sweet and wholesome read, I only wish it was a bit longer! It’s incredible how much is packed into ~250 pages. Nick and Charlie are both wonderfully written and their story feels so real. The side characters are a bit flat since they only really exist to carry the narrative of our two MCs but honestly that’s such a fair choice for two boys who are so obsessed with each other that they lose sight of anyone else. I cannot wait to get my hands on book 2!
