I was really excited to read this book- the eruption of Vesuvius and Pompeii have always interested me. The main characters, Felix, a thief with missing memories, and Loren, an outsider in his own city, have an interesting dynamic full of banter. I think their love story was adorable, but I also feel like opportunities to add more depth to their character were missed. I loved the first 75-80% of the book, but the pacing was somewhat off in the end. Overall, I think this was an enjoyable read, and I'd love to read more of Felix and Loren's adventures.
Thank you Netgalley and Peachtree Teen for the opportunity to read this book early.
