I really liked this book, it's a great summer/holiday read.
I really connected with both main characters, they are written so well. Both characters were lovable whilst having flaws and depth to them.
Abby Jimenez explores PTSD and childhood trauma so well. I really understood the 'getting small' part and I've never seen it described in such a relatable way before.
I highly recommend this book it had me wanting to laugh, cry and cheer them on all at the same time.
