Loved this!!! A second banger from Zhao. I read their middle grade book earlier this summer and also loved it. The story gripped me throughout and the enemies to lovers trope is on full display here. And wonderfully so. And the poly representation?? Wow.
I will say that the tone and narrator voice in the opening chapter really turned me away but luckily after that it flows much better. In the first chapter, the sentences felt choppy and everything was really heavy handed but then the actual main character starts up and her voice is much more enjoyable.
Wonderful book! Cant wait for the next one
