YEA THAT'S BASICALLY IT I LOVED THIS BOOK HOLY MOLY
i also loved the racism theme throughout the book. it is weirdly worded but it's such an important conversation to have and it's essential to educate yourself on matters such as these.
this book kept getting better and better. as i read i thought okay this is a solid four star and then i saw the development and said okay 4.5 and then CARTER so i said ok 4.75 and then QUINN so i said ok five star and then CARTER'S LIST SO IT'S A 5.5

romcoms like this one are so predictable but i did not expect to love it so much. hello. was not PREPARED I CRIED HAPPY TEARS bro i was about to ugly cry
also i loved the underlying theme of family in there as well. hattie made me SNIFFLE SNIFFLE
