<minor_spoiler> This book feels like the two main characters will get together but they don't. </minor_spoiler> Romance isn't the book's main focus and sometimes it's nice just to have a strong friendship. The book discusses fandoms being stalkerish and their effects on real people. The book leaves a strong message.
