I sped through this book in just a couple of days. It was an amazing read, but I do have a few bones to pick:

I felt that there could have been an entire book written about

Spoiler

Belly and Conrad’s romance. I would have loved a book set during the school year, exploring the ups and downs of their relationship before the breakup.

My second bone is that I feel like they made Conrad completely unloveable, to the extent that he is almost beyond redemption for me. The only possible redeeming factor is that it is clear he is in pain from his mother’s death, and I am holding onto hope that his personality will improve as he heals from that pain.

Other than that, I absolutely devoured this book! I am reading the next one immediately.
