This was such a fun and quick read. It's probably not completely necessary to read 10 Blind Dates first, but I was glad I had that background of Olivia's friend group (which is very tightly-knit) and family (which is huge and always in each other's business).

The driving force of this book is the fact that Olivia's friend group helps cover for her while her parents are out of town. Olivia has an app on her phone that tracks her location so her parents can keep tabs on her while they're away. It was fun to see Olivia's friends react and respond to the messages Olivia would receive while they were on "phone duty." I honestly wish I had a friend group that I could trust to take my phone for an entire week and text people back as if they're me. But on the other hand, I'm glad I don't have a parent that would track my every move on an app on the phone and text me every 10 minutes from across the country about what I should be wearing and doing.

This was fun for a quick and cute YA contemporary. Not quite to the parr of 10 Blind Dates, but I'm not mad that I read it.
