The best way to describe this book is that it is essentially a aged up version of Thirteen Reasons Why. None of the characters are exactly likable and I found myself disliking Anthony for the same reason I disliked Clay from thirteen reasons why. The mystery itself was interesting and I liked the format of the storytelling switching from Anthony’s perspective and Lottie’s videos. Overall it was a good read and I liked it well enough.

This was a bit of a hot mess for me. I absolutely loved the first half of it... however by the end I was not having such a great time. The story itself is interesting and the premise caught my attention. I enjoyed the meet cute and the shenanigans. However, what really did not work for me was Landon’s wishy washy breakup reasons and how he seemed to constantly flip between wanting Aubrey and pushing Aubrey away. I really liked Aubrey but kept thinking “ girl you have a business to save. FOCUS.” What really got me was the surprise twist and the way Landon handles it. Overall I’d have to say my biggest issue with this book is Landon. I just found myself frustrated with him and the last minute twists and plot ending. (If I’m being honest, I’d rather Aubrey have ended up without him. It would have been bittersweet but better). Overall it’s a sweet read but it just did not work for me. I think some people would really like it and enjoy it though! I did like the writing style of the author and will definitely read her future works!
