I REALLY enjoyed the portrayal of relationships through this book. The looks at romantic and platonic relationships, growing up and changing throughout this book I thought were done really well! There was great humor and also really great heart warming moments.
The only reason I didn’t rate this 5 stars? July. I could not STAND July. She was incredibly rude and self centered and every time I thought she had turned a corner we’d just run into a wall.
