a sweet book to listen to while doing a puzzle šŸ§©
peter & josh both really make sure kitty feels involved in stuff ā¤ļø
thereā€™s much more backstory than the film, but i love them both. it might be worth noting that this is not my first time reading, and thatā€™s why all of my ā€œthoughtsā€ are about the stuff they say about scotland, and nothing about the actual plot šŸ˜‚

thoughts while listening

24m: no we donā€™t have frozen custard in scotland, i want some
3h4m: shinty?? literally never heard of it
3h5m: we have painkillers in scotland dude! you donā€™t need to send advil šŸ™„
3h7m: oh for goodness sake, do you think we are a third world country or something?? our tampons will be good enough for margot

I let out the breath Iā€™ve been holding the whole way over.
ahh the classic line that features in every YA book

4h52m: *inhales a deep breath* WE HAVE OREOS IN SCOTLAND!!! WHAT KIND OF SAVAGES DO YOU THINK WE SCOTS ARE???
6h9m: ok pub crawls we do have but i donā€™t recommend it
6h12m: raisin weekend? i donā€™t even know if that is real. clearly just a college thing
8h44m: i forgot that this book ended with a cliffhanger, iā€™ll have to start book two pronto
