4.5

I love the main couple and there is an interesting element involved that makes it more than a standard YA romance. It explores themes of moving on from high school and into a new, more adult, and scarier phase of life and explored these themes quite well. I will say there was a twist at the end that lost me a little, but it built up enough goodwill in the first half of the book. Content warnings will have spoilers, so be warned.
