There are some heartwarming moments for sure. Some of the writing is really heavy fisted. Like "yeah gang we learned a lesson! Let's try and apply it to our lives!" then ends the scene with a corny fist bump. It's a charming book for sure, but the charm gets erased by something corny or something unbelievable.

I think I really dislike they way that Harnett talks about this characters past drama. It feels forced, like they just trauma dump all the time. The whole cast is starting too feel a little bit over the top at times.

This book is good, but I do feel like Hartnett can chill on the drama. So far every character introduced just has a super dramatic backstory.
