Normally I like to tear through the books I read, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it with this one. I read it slowly, which I thought at first meant I didn’t love it as much as I expected to, but that wasn’t right.
It was beautiful and, though long, nothing felt unnecessary.
I laughed and I cried; I kicked my feet giggling at the sweet spots and blushed over the spicy ones.
Piper and Leo were such well developed characters and I loved the attention that was paid to all of their relationships in life, not just with each other.

In the world of fast fashion, some retailers do it right. In the world of fast publishing, Katie does it right.
We waited a year to see the sequel to TOWFF, and my goodness are readers lucky to have this follow-up! Over the year, Katie put in countless hours of research to make sure the Spanish flowed properly, the representation was accurate (particularly for those in poverty), and the theatre setting was flawless. The culmination of Katie’s hard work and dedication is a masterpiece of smut and plot and character growth and all of the good things that make a book a book.
My thoughts aren’t flowing properly right now. Just read the book and you’ll get it :)

I love this book so much. Piper, Leo, and their friends and family are like real people to me. Katie has a talent for being succinctly descriptive - there’s not paragraphs of exposition to get a simple point across. That leaves her a lot of room to build character depth and make things feel vividly real. Being a clumsy girl myself, I immediately connected with Piper. Her banter with Leo is hilarious and only gets better as the story progresses.
