I love this book so much. Piper, Leo, and their friends and family are like real people to me. Katie has a talent for being succinctly descriptive - there’s not paragraphs of exposition to get a simple point across. That leaves her a lot of room to build character depth and make things feel vividly real. Being a clumsy girl myself, I immediately connected with Piper. Her banter with Leo is hilarious and only gets better as the story progresses.
