good, but all of the length and build up lead to ultimately a whole bunch of nothing. i was incredibly intrigued by the plot at the beginning and i was seriously invested in the romance aspect, but that was just ok too. overall an ok book.

beautiful, heartwarming, so yay!
a cute ya story about finding someone who will love the REAL you, not the masked you, not the performative you, but someone who will love you for you, including all your imperfections.
even though you could tell this is ya, this was just so fun to read, and everything was written so well and natural. there was a lot of things in here that could easily become a stumble for other authors, but schae kills it and makes it seem like any regular occurrence.
i thought the struggles with sexuality were well written and endeared me to ellie even more.
overall so cute, and i highly recommend for a cute beach read (or wlw romance ❤️)
