This read is a grimm retelling story and is very dark and magical. The author, Margaret Owen, based this book on the "The Goose Girl" which I have never heard of or read. This retelling is also a series so there is another book after this one which is the first of the series. I'd also categorize this retelling as LGBTQ+ which I love. I have no idea what Goose Girl is about but the idea of there being a more woke version is AMAZING to me <3<3<3 Bring on the next book please!

This wasn't the news Harrison expected because they had plans to navigate teenagehood to adulthood together. They plan a bucket list aka Ferris Bueller’s Day Off send off so they can have an epic day to remember. This is one of my favorite movies and I love the reference. Even though they are scared to grow up they include things they are afraid to do on the bucket list to do together before they are apart and it just the sweetest. They better keep in though through video chat!

Quick fun read
Completed in one day
This was a nice take on an enemy to lovers scenario that had a few twists that broke your typical ya vibes.
I loved the fact there was no slut shamming and the lgbtq+ aspects that were brought in
I could really appreciate the mc coming to terms with trying to figure out what she wants in a relationship and to me this had good insight to what transitions people go through leaving high school and entering college.
As much as this was a romanced based book I kind of felt that the last two chapters were very flat and somewhat unnecessary.
I think if they had left the mcs as they were prior to the last two chapters I would have been a bit more satisfied.
I think if we could have seen the mc grow without the love interest would have made it a bit more unique
Or if the character development further progressed I may have thought differently about the two staying separate.
But this was still an amazing book on its own and I look forward to reading more in the series.

"I always had hopes of being a big star. But as you get older, you aim a little lower. Everybody wants to make an impression, some mark upon the world. Then you think, you've made a mark on the world if you just get through it, and a few people remember your name. Then you've left a mark. You don't have to bend the whole world. I think it's better to just enjoy it. Pay your dues, and just enjoy it. If you shoot an arrow and it goes real high, hooray for you."
