This is the very first Molly McAdams book I've read. I enjoyed the idea behind the story and loved that the characters were so versitile. The one aspect that made this book hard for me to finish was Olivia and Brody. I always got excited thinking this time he was going to smarten up and then she'd start up again with her craziness. Their interactions seemed extremely redundant to me and I found it painful at times to get through and even found myself skimming ahead. However, I did enjoy the book. I appreciate all the thought that went into each and every character and their backstory. Character development can make or break a book, and in this case it definitely saved this book for me. The characters and their lives are tragic and maybe that makes me weird but I love a good tragedy. This isn't one of my favorite books, but Molly McAdams has a lot of talent and I look forward to reading her other books in the future.

BECKY ALBERTALLI IS A GENIUS literally I will buy any book she puts out I love her so much, I didn't enjoy this one quite as much as I enjoyed Simon but I don't think I'll ever enjoy anything as much as I enjoyed Simon but that's just life isn't it (the best parts of this book were the parts with Simon just saying) All in all I enjoyed this a lot and I'm in love with Reid <spoiler>I'm so glad Molly ended up with him</spoiler> and I found I related to Molly in a lot of different things, unrequited love is my life.

my main criticisms are that it did take me almost 200 pages before I was super invested and I felt that although the representation was strong it was all just added in a little unnecessarily and was used just for the sake of having representation rather than being pivotal to the plot.

Anyway that said I'm SOOOO excited for Leah on the offbeat to come out like I'm so hyped.

GOOD GOLLY MISS MOLLY is the prequel novella to the Mystic Beach series. If you're looking for a short, steamy, and intriguing story, then congratulations! Because that's what you've found.

The story focuses on Molly and Logan, two people who live in Mystic Beach but, for their own reasons, thought they'd never find someone to be with. Sometimes, giving in to doughnuts rewards you in ways you never imagined!

You also get hints and teasers about other characters, as well as the magic Mystic Beach may have. All in all, this was a quick read that has completely whetted my appetite for more! Looking forward to reading Once Upon a Dream which is due for release this summer. Until then, I definitely recommend you get your mitts on this prequel.
