This was a four star, which feels unfair considering I really liked almost all the couples… but Stevie’s love story was the focal point for the full novel, and I just could not stand them. (I did like Sola, in fact I think she deserved much better.) I think Stevie reminded me of me at that age, so pretentious and oblivious to how the things they say hurt other people. Maybe it was a realistic portrayal, but I didn’t enjoy it. The rest of it though? Lovely. A young, black, love actually (and I loved Love, Actually). I don’t read many love stories, or a tonne of YA anymore, but this was good, a nice palate cleanser. And I know I’m an outlier here, but I preferred it generally over Blackout
