Famous in a Small Town

probably the 2nd in rank of thee emma mills' book i cried unreasonably for (next to the top 1, this adventure ends, which i'm sure i sobbed badly throughout the end)

at first i thought this would be a 3 star rating but the last 15% of the book made it for me. there was just so many BOMBS and so much open-ended possibilities. a part of me wished that megan pleasant never showed up at all but the fact that she never came back again made sense that i couldn't get mad at that bit.

i feel so mixed about the whole group's personalities yet it's the reminder that they are technically still just kids, learning how to navigate big emotions and enourmous life changes that makes me appreciate them more. sure, they're stupid and has many issues but they'll probably work them out. they will get through it.

overall the most raw of (so far) of emma's mills' books. the characters just seems to still be developing and is on process on learning that the messiness makes sense to me.
