Content of book itself: pretty good :) as a gay dude learning italian…I felt very seen. Really a sweet story and I was generally invested in the story. Good characters, medium pace, and realistic stakes.

Critiques-
One thing that felt like it would come up later but never did wasthe illegal wikipedia junk. I was waiting for repercussions.
Also, the ending didn’t feel very fleshed out compared to the rest of the book. We spent all this time building up this story and then it fizzles out… I suppose that can be true to life but I’d prefer a clearer ending (thoughthe voicemail was a great final note)

Overall solid, would read more from the author.
