I really liked this sequel! Do I think it was 100% necessary? Probably not. But I still enjoyed it.
It was a little frustrating to read at times because I feel like the main characters kept going back and forth and didn't quite know what they wanted. I think this is realistic but at the same time it was frustrating to read about.
I really do like the whole idea of the second chance trope. I also liked the coming-of-age themes in this book and the figuring out your identity aspect. I think the ending was a little rushed and out of the blue (especially on ben's side). But i enjoyed it anyway.
I think this is an unpopular opinion but I liked all of the pop culture references. It made me enjoy the book more. Overall, I think it was a really cute story.
