Sometimes I question the things my friends find for me to read. Yet I still indulge. I laughed the whole time reading this from the ridiculousness.

Loved all the characters, loved to hate some of the characters. The storyline and plot was great and so fun.

“Don’t worry, piccola sirena. You don’t need sweet treats to impress me. You’re impressive enough.”

“In a different life…” I pause, emotion suddenly clogging my throat. “I’d love you out loud.”

Because life’s too short to not hold the ones you love close.

This was a reread and since I read this two years ago, I have expanded my Meghan Quinn reads and that enhanced this reread so much more! 

So many great reminders that I enjoyed hearing. Some were a bit extreme is you really want to live the minimalist life but this was a good start to thinking minimal.

I loved the Vietnamese culture that was shown throughout the clothes, food, people. 

The many tropes were fun but toward the end it seemed to drag, especially around the third act breakup. But I liked it and even enjoyed character appearances from the author's other series! I can't wait to read Vincent and Brooklyn's story!

“I’m a ballerina. I live by rules.”

“I think you’re capable of more than you give yourself credit for,” I said. “But at the end of the day, you have to ask yourself what you’d regret more—trying and failing, or not trying at all?”

“Just because you’re privileged in one way doesn’t mean you can’t struggle in other ways.”

We didn’t speak. We didn’t need to. Sometimes, actions were enough.

I devoured this series! This had so much whimsical magic with tons of adventure. Loved it!
