cute, but i think the book shined the most whenever the spotlight was on AJ and maya's relationship. i wish we had just focused on that more instead of delving into other subplots that i didn't really care about all that much. also, this book just did not impact me the way i thought it would. i love reading books too (obviously) but even i found the ending a little pretentious.
