1. Characters:
✅ Ordinary (Stereotypical: Yes)
✅ Cute (Compelling: Yes)
✅ Flat (Skim: Yes)
✅ Annoying (Skim: Yes) - Ever had characters that were just amazing and good? Well, this one had them - but almost all of them were overpouring with these "niceties" (I'm not sure that's a word-)
2. Plot
✅ Easy to read (Fast) - like in other Kasie West's novels
✅ Predictable (Same old, same old YA)
Things I liked in this book- was definitely the music aspect.
Things I don't like much in Kasie West's novels: They ARE FLAT, SHALLOW, FAKE- if you know what I mean.

General thoughts:
It seems like a fun, easy and light-hearted book with relatable sometimes: 2-dimensional characters. Maybe, it was a teensy-bit boring— (or this is not the right genre for me now, or maybe it's just me?). I hope it gets better although....
Some parts were messed-up:
There were several parts of that story that didn't match with the near future. I've found a few examples of that happening. And, let me tell you—it was a bit cringeworthy! These inconsistencies were constantly off-putting, however, it was ignorable.

It does get better somewhat. Not very memorable although!
100% done...
ALSO WHAT'S UP WITH GR- I've read this only once!? If I edit this review thrice- does it mean I've read it thrice!??
Pre-read:
It was recommended by a friend. It seems it has similar vibes of Better than the Movies by Lynn Painter. (view spoiler) So, why not try it out? (Plus, looks it's a short book as well)
