The story was adorable and pulled me back into autumnal pumpkin patch adventures with friends and that weird future nostalgia of preparing to miss things before a big change. The characters are lovable, and I really enjoyed Josie's himbo moment of realization.
The cast of characters is diverse and fun, there's positive LGBTQ representation, and there's a good message about remembering to cherish what/who you have without being didact. I think I want to read this again in the Fall, maybe for a book club.
