I thought this was a very cute story, and I loved the addition of scenes from the actual D&D campaign, instead of just being a story *about* people who play D&D. The writing was well done, wasn't clunky in any spots, and the pacing flowed well. It was also clear; I was never confused about how much time had passed, although I also was surprised to realize that the entire summer had flown by throughout the book's pages. Well done on that balance! A personal preference would've been to see more of the other players and their blossoming friendship with the main character, but I know it would be hard to rectify that additional page count needed with the dual storyline. The romance between Sadie and Noah is believable and adorable, not quite a slow burn but also not insta love thankfully. As a bonus, there is NO third act breakup, and the couple talks through things together (communication, imagine!). So it hit all the right notes for me there.
