2.0

i feel like i expected there to be more discussion of grief given how some ppl would tw that but it felt like it was more about belly “getting over” conrad while jeremiah sulked
obviously i wanted more on them grieving susannah and less on their relationships with each other but whatever it’s a ya romcom
also gavin casalegno is an awful narrator, if i wasn’t team conrad before i most certainly am now

(also do not understand the development between belly and jeremiah, felt very one sided and then he kissed her and suddenly she was into it)

This one has a lot more sad moments than the first book, but I liked the character development a lot more. A really great nostalgic coming of age novel.

As much as Belly annoys me, I did like her character growth in this book. The characters felt like their ages—kudos to Han for staying true to that, especially with the difficult themes discussed.
