This was really cute! I enjoyed the story and premise. I thought the love story was adorable. I do have to say the Liz did annoy me a tad bit. I mean she’s a teenager and she was going through things, but some of her actions were just annoying. I did think there was going to be more “movie” moments in this because of the cover, but I’m not mad there wasn’t because I hadn’t seen any of the movies mentioned which is crazy because I love rom cons. Oh I also loved how Liz’s relationship with her stepmother grew that was sweet. The ending made me tear up actually.
