emotional funny lighthearted

4.0

I enjoyed this more than any other Ali Hazelwood story I have tried - the YA plot made me more accepting of the pop culture references and writing style. I was actually invested in the romance and found the illusions to chess were cleverly mirrored to other aspects of the story.
