I really liked this book. It definitely wasn't a rom-com because it had more serious moments than funny ones. But I liked it that it handled more realistic issues. I really liked that there were books being written within the book. Lastly, I really liked that there wasn't insta love, yes the characters had a thing for each other before but they fall in and we get to see that process rather than the unfounded love that just appears in some books.
