![]() ![]() I love seeing characters who have friends in there life that support each other this fiercely. Both of the main heroines have the strongest friend groups. On top of that this had absolutely amazing female friendships. I loved and appreciated how the author dealt with the topic. This features a pretty heavy theme of bullying and manipulative relationships. ![]() In general this book really dives in the discussion of toxic relationships. It’s is not a topic I’ve seen discussed before in a book, so I really appreciated that Kelly Quindlen went there in a YA romance. Scottie lost herself in a past relationship and is trying to recover her identity outside of it. It dealt heavily with heartbreak, which I think anyone – including older readers – will be able to relate to. This book really explored the vast range of the teenage experiences. These characters read like real teens – they make bad choices, they were messy, they were angsty, and it was absolutely fantastic. While, this started off a little slow, once the story got going I absolutely fell in love with these characters. ![]() This was really adorable and really well done. YA contemporary romance isn’t always my thing – but this book made me a believer. ![]() Thank you so, so much to Roaring Book Press and Netgalley for sending me an e-arc copy in exchange for an honest review. ![]()
