Unfortunately, I didn't love this as much as I thought I would. I struggled to connect with the characters and plot. There were still some cute moments, and I loved the representation of Freddy's learning disabilities. The topic of grief was handled well. The relationship between Ro and Freddy was very sweet, with lots of communication and trust, and I really enjoyed seeing them support each other. However, I do think there was too much going on at times, but at the same time, nothing was happening. The focus on external conflicts made it hard to find any real connection between the characters beyond an emotional one.
