Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for a copy of this book. All opinions are 100% my own.

This book was fine. It’ll be a good, quick read for the young adult audience.

This book follows Ori who loses all of her friends after kissing her best friends boyfriend. After being left with no plans for summer she goes on a road trip to France with her estranged grandad and great aunt. Ori’s relationships with her family and her friends Ravi and Jackson are explored throughout the book. I wish there was more Elias content as he was the only mature character in the whole thing.

There were a few formatting issues where there were no spaces between words when there should have been, but I assume this will be fixed prior to the publication date.

I so enjoyed reading about the (slightly cringy) adventures of Ori. Having kissed her best friend's boyfriend, she escapes to France for the summer, where she gets herself in ever more teenage-angst inducing situations, surrounded and supported by a motley crew of fabulous characters. A fast-paced read full of witty conversations and awkward scenarios — a potent reminder that I'm very relieved to no longer be a teen!

A fantastic read. The character development in Ori, Claude and Jackson is beautiful to discover as the book goes on and each character has something you relate to. This would be a fantastic book to lean back on the beach with and read whilst listening to the waves roll in. I finished it in one sitting and would safely say that others will do the same! 'Affirmative' that this is a fantastic read!
