The Gatekeepers by Jen Lancaster

3.0

Read this one as an audiobook and found it an enjoyable listen. I'm just starting audiobooks, so I liked that each character had a different narrator. I grew up a couple hours outside the area where this book is set and I am very familiar with the sentiments described in the book, so I related a bit to the story. That and being surrounded by young adults with all these worries. Overall the book was...fine. Unsurprisingly, there were a lot of references to John Hughes and the book felt like it was written by someone who grew up with those movies. Which leads me to consider who this book was written for...gen Z will certainly not relate and it's a bit old for old Millenials and young Gen-X'ers.
