Ok great I hate BOTH the mentor romances and how they came about. Honestly, I had high hopes bc this book looks so pretty but the mob stuff isn't really for me? in this way, and yeah ugh. I'm just not a fan but I'm too far into the generally **good** story to stop. I just won't read the sequel

Wait... isn't that his... teacher/mentor? Also I feel like the way time passes is too *passive* and I'm not a fan of the way it's done so casually. Like, it would've taken "too long" to make an entire book their childhood and then age them up, but I just feel like it's almost too accelerated that I can't say I care/believe too much that they're both geniuses

I don't love that we've skipped ahead so much time and they're "in love"

I'm not sure how I feel about Sam. Also, they're so young but I feel like the tone/way Sam and Ari are written gives off someone older than middle school
