I really appreciated the balance of lighthearted-ness and deeper, meaningful conversation in this book. I think the grief element was done beautifully and appropriately for a YA book. The romance was very cute as well!

I may need a little more time to figure out why this book wasn't quite a 4 for me. 

The story was cute and I liked the characters. I felt Andie had some great personal growth. I loved seeing the representation of bi/lesbian characters. I had suspicions what the major conflict would be pretty early on. The romance was somewhat slow (maybe I've been reading too much adult romance/ smut). But it was otherwise a cozy quick read.

I think my biggest annoyance was Andie's need to literally try and fix everyone's problems. Also her weird aversion to curse words, replacing them with food items. It wasn't cute... just annoying to me. Especially since shit and fuck were both used elsewhere. Also Andie was basically raised by snarky grannies who I promise swore.

Another sweet read from Emma Lord, set at a fictional version of UVA. I loved the found family elements, though I found the main character (Andie) a bit frustrating, and some of the conflict was contrived (though I guess realistic for 18-year-olds).
