Picked this one up after reading a few other novels from Hendrix, I always found them to be easy and fast reads because they keep me on my toes wondering what is going to happen next. This one didn’t disappoint.

It’s a story about friendship, and the awkwardness of growing up when you are dorky like I was 🤭 I connected with Abby a lot and felt her pain and struggles so it made me engage a lot more while reading it.

If I had the time, I would’ve read this all at once because the story picks up quite fast and it is quite a fun story. I would’ve wanted it to be a bit more scary (this is the reason I didn’t give it 5 stars) I think the writer held himself back a little as there where a ton of opportunities to make it darker.

If you into 80’s nostalgia stuff, as I am, you are going to love this one👏🏻
