thanks to netgalley & the publisher for an arc!!!
i thought this was a pretty good book. i liked the start of their romance, and i was especially invested in the second half. i just did not like june as much as i wanted to. i found her to be really selfish, and while she did grow, i just didnt feel like she adequately apologized for or acknowledged the pain she caused. some of the references and phrases that were very modern weren’t my favorite either, because i think they will put too much of a timestamp on the book and make less accessible to readers years in the future.

some middle grade books transcend their intended audience and are enjoyable for everyone. this one, however, i think would have been more enjoyable if i truly was a middle grade reader. it was still pretty good though. s/o to knackering molly.

i think i would have had a better reading experience if i went with the physical book or ebook instead of the audio :/ but the writing was good. hard to read, but i think its supposed to be
