3.0

So I am going to start this review with the disclaimer that my opinion of this book was heavily impacted by the fact that I already knew how it would end. And for that reason, I struggled to be fully invested in all the romantic relationships and love interest characters. However, I did still enjoy the story. I liked watching Micah navigate all his firsts, even when they were messy or awkward or a flop, and he had strong character development. And I loved his art and how he used it to express himself through Instaloves and his mural. I also loved Hannah and Micah’s family. Hannah is probably the best best friend ever, and Micah’s family is so wholesome and supportive.  But what I found in this book that truly made it totally worth the read was all the fairytale references. They made the book absolutely adorable and created such a fun vibe for a young adult rom com. So even though I ‘spoiled’ the ending for myself I was still able to enjoy Micah and his friends and family, and overall I would recommend this book.
