This book wouldn’t be what it is without it’s cast of characters. ”Add chocolate chips, butter, flour, salt, cocoa powder, eggs, and more embarrassment than the body of a teenage girl can possibly contain, set the oven to a bajillion degrees and set the whole damn thing on fire.” Characters What else could you want? I was able to just run through this book, because I never wanted to put it down! It was addictive, fast-paced with great drama, character moments, and an overall heartwarming feeling. It’s basically “You’ve Got Mail” but modern and full of memes. “What happens on Twitter, stays on Twitter.” Plot (For context: This is coming from a (rural) Long Islander with major social anxiety who goes to the city almost every other month and has never been a big fan).
Pepper and Jack both have unique feelings towards the city and it’s shown so well, and made me have a newfound appreciation for it that I never did before. Also, this book takes place in NYC and I’ve never seen a book describe the city so accurately. Emma Lord also manages to add wonderful depth to this book in addition to the comedy. I found myself laughing way more than I thought I ever would. The writing style is easy to get into and enjoy, painfully relatable, and full of memes.
