Also the fierce love and protection of Maddy is real and raw. I think sometimes our intimidating friends are the most beautiful and rich in love. They are fighters and while they may be tough in their register and delivery, they still stay and fight for you in the deepest ways and through the darkest of times. I loved that Emma had that…she needed it! I often feel like Maddy and I often get curbed for it. But I think everyone should have a friend who fiercely loves them as deeply as Maddy did Emma.
Also. Neil. The culmination of his story three books over actually made sense to me and made me feel empathy for him in the end. I am someone who believes in the ability of people and I stand by the belief that people can change. When they are willing and committed and intentional about it, they can. And Neil did. And I love that for him in the end.
And then Justin and Emma are just so sweet and tender and goofy and NORMAL. Like it was such a tender story. Ugh. Ok Abby. You’ve redeemed yourself for me. I’ll allow it.

I picked up the book after seeing a lot of buzz about it and while it does offer a lighthearted romance, it didn’t fully click with me. I struggled to connect with the relationship between the main characters, Emma and Justin.
