It took me quite a while to sit down and actually read this one, but once I did I enjoyed it. The writing is done well and I found myself reading pages and pages without realizing time was passing. It was a really quick read.

The unfortunate thing, is that I'm only getting around to reviewing it almost a month later (because life) and I can't remember too much about it or my feelings. So, this will review will be to the point.

It is sweet, romantic, and happy.
There is some good commentary on how our bodies change and potentially our futures along with it, there is also scenes revolving around teens knowing what they want against their family's wishes– I'm not entirely sure I agree with how this last one was done, but it was very realistic.

Some of it didn't seem so realistic though and their impromptu road trip was a thing of fantasy.
Yet, this is YA and allowed these moments or ridiculous – we read to escape, to see someone thrive and grow well.

This is an easy and sweet read – one I'll recommend to someone looking for a quick read or lighthearted for summer.
