*I received this book from NetGalley in return for a honest review*

I listen to Amanda's podcast "Sounds Like a Cult" and knew that I had to read this book. I always find it interesting how Amanda weaves in everyday culture to see how we are being influenced, influencing others, and existing in the world.

This is a short book and each chapter is like a mini essay on its own topic which makes it easy to read, but while enjoyable, it just wasn't as engaging as I was hoping for.

This is a fun look into culture and how we exist in the world.

This second book in the series is just as fun and sweet as the first. I love the setting, the family and friends surrounding this book. 

I love a chance meeting and then finding out who they really are the next day and then the forced proximity. Their relationship was pining, sexy, and full of tension and I enjoyed every moment of it. 

I am excited to continue this series and all the characters in it.
