This is honestly so overhyped. Wanted to like it but didn't connect with the characters. I wasn't rooting for them. She felt really childlike and he didn't seem to have much personality. Also, these characters are supposed to be 'best friends' but that didn't come across that well. I was bored throughout.
First it was quite promising but it doesn't go anywhere. The only reason why I kept reading it is because it is really easy and fast to read, most of the book is dialogue. Still, I found myself skipping so many pages, especially the last 100 pages of the book. Even though I skipped pages I could still follow the story. Why is that? Because nothing happends! It is so repetetive.
