I normally adore alice oseman’s books but this one didn’t quite capture me in the same way… it was still good, she is a brilliant writer but it wasn’t quite for me! :)

This was the best oseman book I’ve read! It was incredible I read it in 2 days. It was just amazing and reading Ollie’s copy just made it so much better!

I think this book is a great one to read during your senior year of high school, it really does a good job at capturing a lot of the feelings that come with college applications and preparing for the future and whatnot. I think a lot of people feel seen by this book which is fantastic. My only thing is that I didn't LOVE how awkward the dialogue felt at times but I'm not really pressed about that I still really enjoyed it.

Honestly, I loved this book, it was a very easy and quick book to pick up. It was fun trying to figure out who February Friday is alongside the main character. I can't wait to read more of Alice Oseman's work because this was captivating to me.
