this book was pretty good. it was not anything groundbreaking, and i didnt find i connected much with any of the characters but i enjoyed the banter and the sisters’ relationship. i found that the talk about tropes and other book characteristics a bit too meta and it felt a little forced/cringy at times. 

while i didnt love this book in general, i did love
the way that the conversation about their childhood was written. i thought it was very realistic that nora would have a much more romanticized view of their childhood and i really liked that libby told her that she didnt need to take care of her anymore and that their mom wasnt perfect. it explained a lot about nora and it was written quite well.
