Gosh, I just love Helen Hoang’s writing! This one was so fun— I think I liked it almost as much as the first! I absolutely loved Quan (where can I find one of him?!) and Anna. I loved her resilience and although it took a while, I was so proud when she finally stood up for herself. On that note, Priscilla made me want to throw the book across the room and scream. I couldn’t stand her! The ending was perfect and I felt like a proud friend watching Anna 🥲

→ Things I Liked: humor, mental illness representation, short chapters, multiple povs

→ Things I Disliked: Priscilla— she made me irrationally angry 😅
