I think I would recommend this book for most teenagers! However I’m a bit old for the plot and messaging to really hit me as hard as it’s meant to, hence the lower rating.

The ending twist felt a bit random… Almost like there were too many cooks in the kitchen. But I did really enjoy this one!

I was obsessed in the first half thinking it would be a five stars, but halfway through everything kind of fell flat for me. Still enjoyable, but not to the extent I thought it would be.

This is your classic young adult contemporary romance. I was really enjoying myself until about halfway through the book
aka when they were already together
. After that, everything felt quite juvenile and repetitive so I had a hard time with the second half.

Still really enjoying this series! I think it always says a lot when I enjoy short stories and novellas, it means they weren’t superfluous to the normal series!

Consistently a 4.5 stars throughout, but the ending had my jaw on the floor. I don’t know how I didn’t see it coming, but I didn’t which means it had to be given 5 stars!!
