I really liked Emma Lord's Tweet Cute, and this one has much of her fun style back in the dialogue (as well as the less-endearing parent drama seeping into children's lives). I didn't relate much to Abby, but I think many teenagers will. The book is centered around social media again, but instead of Twitter it's Instagram. While there is a romance arc, friendships and family share center stage equally if not more. I liked that!

Anyway, I liked this one just fine—but there is a LOT more language right out the gate and throughout. I didn't like it as much as Tweet Cute but I would still read this author again.

This book is both cute and heartwarming, though packed with a lot of cliché teenage moments, it was still an entertaining read.

It was an alright book, there was a little less romance than I had expected, but I actually liked the story. But I do feel like the parents reason for hating each other was a bit odd.

Here is my few thoughts while I read:
I like the vibe of the book cover, but the people (especially their faces) are ugly 
Page 157: Girl you can’t be mad that he chose to study somewhere else 
Page 216: “I wish you saw yourself as he way I see you” nothing more romantic
