[audiobook]
probably the first time ive re-read this book since high school i think. i remember everyone around me being hype around sarah dessen and i tried my hand with this book and wasn't sure if i was sold on her at the time, which is fine.
i do love a good breakup/makeup, although remy was so in denial about her own feelings i didn't really get to enjoy any pining, haha. i appreciated her growth over the course of the summer, but i do think the book dragged a bit bc of the stagnant nature of her point of view. not a bad listen but it didn't blow me away.
also jess is queer
