This was a cute, quick, little story. I loved the atmosphere/vibe of the story (and the cover fits it perfectly, imo). I liked the characters, but in some ways I found the side characters more compelling than the MCs. The romance could have been stronger too. What was there seemed a bit rushed, and most of it only existed at the beginning and the end, with very little in between. My other main gripe with this novella was that the structure of the writing style was odd at times and sometimes made it unnecessarily confusing to read.
