This was a sweet and heartfelt YA about an oft-neglected topic, the breakup of a friendship. I could relate to many parts of this and I'm sure lots of other people will too. I enjoyed Cleo and Dom's budding romance and her journey of moving on from Layla as well as dealing with her parents' divorce. Cleo and Dom's relationship was so cute and I loved their conversations because both of them were really great characters.
I will say that this book is very YA and gets a bit cheesy and repetitive in the second half, so probably wouldn't recommend it to adults. For teens though, this one is great!
