The hype was deserved for this one. Interestingly, it has kind of a lit fic vibe, even though it has all the beats of a traditional romance novel. I felt like the first half was somewhat stronger than the second, but the writing was exquisite throughout and I really loved both Shane and Eva and wanted to root for them both as their troubled teenage selves and their equally, although very differently, troubled adult selves.
