Wow, this is such an incredible book! I read the indie version of this book last year, and heard it was being traditionally published. I couldn’t wait for it! I wanted to see what improvements had been made and what had changed, and I was blown away because it was even BETTER! This story is so cute, wholesome, and a cozy read, despite having some heavy themes. I think there was a lot of improvement within the sentences, paragraphs, and structure that were cleaned up and helped the flow of the story, and made it even more excellent than it was before. I was very happy to have more Lo and Maeve this time around. The extra Maeve scenes were exactly what I wanted them to be, and Lark and Calum were perfection. I think these add ons really helped the story and help Lark’s character. I also really enjoyed Reese being mentioned more. It added empathy and tugged on the heartstrings in all the right away. I loved the changes that were made to help structure it more and that we got to see more of some very important characters. I appreciate the representation of so many different things put into this story. From speech issues, anxiety, dealing with grief and self deprecation, to LGBT+ representation; this book truly has it all and something for everyone. This book is so well written and the plot and characters were just so well done. The cover is also really adorable! I loved the setting of this book as well. I think everyone will enjoy this newly refined release of this wodnerful book and will be happy with not only the changes and improvements, but the story and characters as a whole.

Thank you to NetGalley, Ivy Fairbanks, and G.P. Putnam's Sons for the eARC of this book.
