This was the best oseman book I’ve read! It was incredible I read it in 2 days. It was just amazing and reading Ollie’s copy just made it so much better!

I really enjoyed this book! I have no idea why I put off reading it for so long. I felt like the plot twists were great, and I liked how we slowly discover new things about the characters as we go on (not just bombarded with backstories off the bat). There were conflicts up until the second to last chapter, but it was all resolved nicely. I know this is a standalone but if Oseman ever decides to make another book with these characters, I’ll be front of the line to preorder it :)
