I loved the footnotes at the bottom of Daisy’s chapters.
This book felt slightly less toxic, but more sad than Magnolia Parks was. I can’t stop reading now because there are too many storylines that I need to see have a satisfying conclusion.
I wish I knew before reading this that it overlaps with Magnolia Parks because I think tandem reading would make this even better.
One of the things I didn’t like is that the text messages felt like they were in the wrong places at times. It wasn’t always clear who they were from or to and it looks as if some were placed wrongly since they seemingly didn’t involve the character who's POV they were in.
