Think the book's greatest strength is it's depiction of anxiety, may seem over the top at times but even then I've seen myself think those same things. Don't expect too much fast paced plot based action for the first half of the book, It's very much just a vibe as characters warm up to each other and honestly was such a great place to explore. Things pick up a ton in the second half and all the puzzle pieces coming together is done so well. I think it's a hallmark of a great story when as soon as the story ends I just want to so desperately see some kind of sequel to see those characters again one last time.
