Funny, cute, and an enjoyable book!
I loved a lot of the side characters, especially Connie and Glenn. Jack and Hannah also had great character development.
Ending was a hot mess though. I thought the hostage plot twist was unnecessary. It was strange and felt out of place. Plus, there was a lot of life-is-worth-living preaching that was really cheesy and heavy handed. There are also small tints of misogyny sprinkled throughout the book in a “I’m not like other girls” fashion.
An overall good read though.
