I really loved how inclusive and diverse the characters were within this book - it made me so happy to see. The chapters were quite short and easy to get through fast. This book made me cry because there was one moment in particular that was absolutely beautiful and warmed my heart.
I quite liked how this book used multiple POVs (Benji, Nick and Theo), however one of them I didn’t see the point as to why it was there as we only heard from that character once - it didn’t feel like it added much.
I think this is the one time where I wish the book was longer because I would have loved the ending to be longer to see how certain things would play out as it felt unfinished.
Also, there was an error within this book - on page 359 it says “castinga” but it should be casting a.
