This was super cute! The writing was super casual, maybe a little too much. But! It was an and fun read! Enjoyed myself. I love the relationship between Blake and Iz.

LOUD, EMOTIONAL SCREAMING. I did not expect to like this book as much as I did. When things pick up, _they pick up._ All these plot twists and turns gave me whiplash and the amount of distressed screaming and gleeful giggles resonated everywhere I went reading this!

It was hard for me to get into it at first. The writing was a little weird to me, didn't flow. But I got accustomed to it. Over all, it was a fun read at most. I valued the relationship between Serena and Ana with Misery more than I did with Misery and Lowe. Lost me a couple times where it felt like a chore to read, but picked up again. Didn't hate it, didn't love it either. It's a fun, easy pallet cleanser. 

Which I may need given what I wanna read next, lol.
