Thank you to rachelsrandomresources for the copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Okay so firstly I’ll admit this is actually a 2nd book in a series and I didn’t know that (whoops) but you definitely could read this without reading the 1st as the story covers who everyone is and all their relations.
I’d definitely put this book in the middle grade/young teen age category so whilst it wasn’t quite for me it was still enjoyable.
I will admit at first, the constant insecure inner monologue was bothering me, but then I thought back to what I was like at 16 years old when I liked a bit and actually realised it was probably very accurate.
This is a very sweet romance, definitely uk 12 movie rating, which also covers some great learning experiences for 16 year olds including how to navigate friendships and relationships.
It also covers the topic of family members suffering with dementia in what I think is a really good way (however I haven’t had personal experience in this area so cannot day for sure)
A really sweet contemporary romance, that was easy and fast paced, and would make a perfect summer evening read
