This genuinely had me laughing and squealing for about 85% of the book. The other 15% is a pretty ever split of hard-hitting moments that land really well, and attempts at deep themes that feel saccherine and heavy handed. Overall though, this was completely delightful. You have to o in expecting it to be ridiculous, but if your mindset is right it is a lot of fun.
