I WANT TO LIVE IN THE PATCH!!!
I love this place so, so much - such a fantastic setting (I may or may not have googled 'pumpkin patch theme parks' up on completion...)
The characters were rich and came alive, I loved seeing a chubby main character who was 100% herself and was so valued and loved for it. However....

*Spoilers ahead*

The ending. Wtf, the ending!! The whole way through I was loving the amazing platonic beautiful friendship. I loved Josies realization that fudge girl was not his valuable relationship at the patch, but I just wanted to desperately for our protagonists to have a purely platonic, supportive, healthy relationship. For him to realise that he would miss her friendship above all else would have been such a sweet, fitting ending.

2020 iso reread - I think I can conclusively confirm that this is my least fav of the series.

Sumi is the star of this show - I have never had as much affection for a wayward child as I do for who Sumi got to be in this installment.

Still a five star!!

2020 reread: still my fav. Lupin and Remus as still ride or die.

Pretty dang cute

I wish this was a full novel - I loved the world and the characters... I just wanted more!
