But wanting the straight-on romance and getting Millie’s issues left me a little disappointed. I sure did love that friend group, though! It’d be fun to see them get their own books. I’d so be up for that. :)Tanya @ Girl Plus Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18357204133826428572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051174949483344057.post-780013961152835162019-05-06T14:56:28.779-04:002019-05-06T14:56:28.779-04:00I’ve actually never read any one their earlier ser...I’ve actually never read any one their earlier series. I jumped in when they came out with Autoboyography and Love and Other Words. Those two (plus Josh & Hazel) were such total hits for me.

I thought she experiences a lot of growth over the course of the book. I felt this was more a book about Millie finding herself and the romance was the extra something. I was also obsessed with this group of friends, and would love to see the others get their own books.
