I liked this book but I also feel conflicted. I felt the romance aspect of the story was very rushed but the other parts of story was developed well. 

I loved Spencer's relationship with his grandmother and his sisters but I wished there was more about his relationship with his parents. For Josie, I liked her personality but I wished she had more time to discover how to be more relaxed/carefree and also address some of emotions that rose up from her sister's accident. 

Lastly, I really appreciated how the author addressed racism in this book. It was discussed in a way that was realistic but it wasn't hyperfocused/overemphasized throughout the book.
