This one wasn't a personal favorite, mainly because I had a really hard time with Olivia as a character--she is purposefully selfish, and she does eventually realize the impact of her actions, but it is almost at the end. I just didn't know why her friends would have stuck around for so long. There is a lot going on plot-wise, with both Toni and Olivia having their own goals for the festival weekend. I definitely think that people looking for sapphic YA with flawed main characters will enjoy this, it just wasn't a personal fave.

I wasn't really cool with the way trauma and gun violence was portrayed in this. The only thing I really enjoyed was the music festival aspect
