4.5

There is only one way to describe this book. There is nothing wrong with it and it is just a 379page definition of happy fluffy romance. 

China's relationship ark is really well done,
and it doesn't necessary end up with her with someone which I thought was good, even if it alludes to a romance between her and brandy, maybe they are just friends
she is not just a lesbian just because and that's not her only personality trait, there is more than 1 or two gay characters, the flaw the protagonists are put through actually make sense and are paced well. 

Anyway, very good book, basically nothing wrong with it other than Naina becomes an ahole but even she has some growth and self reflection by the end of the book so I don't even have a problem with it. Very much well done happy romance vibes.
