All in all, this book was a masterpiece to read. I was fully enthralled and could not put it down. The rom-com theme was so creative and cute!! I will say, at first I wasn’t sure if I was gonna be annoyed or not but I was quickly won over by Wes ;). I had slight qualms with plot/Liz (haha) just bc I thought that some of the decisions made were only made for drama or to take the plot one way instead of another. Specifically, a few scenes at the end were pretty frustrating, because Liz would not listen to reason or logic. It was just like put the pieces together already. Also, like every other review, more Wes content is a must.
