Meh.
Yeah, the guys were sweet, both of them, especially Kyle. Sweet and relatable. But there was also a bunch of things that just made my eyes roll :
- Not a fan of this writing where the first person narrative from different characters feels like they're lying out all their teen - drama - thoughts onto me.
- Why did we get Ezra's POV? Not any use at all. And Ruby's? Not much use either...
- Didn't like the stereotype of the head cheerleader being the most popular girl in school, loves herself and is pretty ego-centrical. Oh but that's fine because life at home is difficult and she wants to redeam herself ... nope. And her superficial friends. And the stupid teen drama that comes from them.
- 100% predictable.
I mean I guess other than that it was fine. But it just seems fine to me. Maybe it's too short : with more development could have been build a better evolving story, less straight-forward and 'easy'.
