I couldn’t get on with the writing style. It felt overly young and awkward and brought me out of the book 
slow-paced

Another brilliant book from Mhairi. I absolutely loved this. She writes friendships so so well, and the dialogue is so witty and realistic. I love the settings and it’s so nice to read about somewhere familiar in the UK rather than london. 

I couldn’t read it quick enough but I’m so sad it’s finished!

This is such a beautifully written book, one you luxuriate in and savour for every word, sentence and page. 

I absolutely loved the characters and the way their stories intertwined. I loved their complex relationships with each other and themselves, and the secondary characters were brilliant.

I knew I wasn’t going to get on with this book once I got a few pages in - not into the writing and can’t be doing with the cliched and cheesy feel to it like a bad 90s teen movie
