Despite it being almost 10 years old and incredibly dated due to the references and stuff considered cool at the time, it still manages to come off as a very fun light read.
The small town energy is intoxicating and it really makes you feel like you're there with them, just another townsperson spectating and cheering them along. I found myself laughing out loud several times while reading which is a rare occurrence for me.
The characters are lovely and so so supportive of one another, it's refreshing to read a book where there's no bad vibes and just well intentioned people. We need more books with less drama, and I'm glad I stumbled upon this one. We also need more books with such a sweet representation and honest conversations about sexual orientations, identities, expectations in relationships, etc. From the dedication alone I knew I was in the right place. Thanks for creating a safe space in those pages, author.
