Since I am bad at articulating my love for Emma Mills' books, I will just give you a list of five fabulous things in this book.
1. The friendship was the heart of the story. Sloane was sort of a loner back in NYC, which was why relocating during her senior year didn't seem to phase her, but luck brought Vera and her crew into Sloane's life, and they decided to "keep her". This group had their ups and downs, but there was so much love and affection shared between them all. Each of them served an important role as part of the whole, and Sloane fit right in with them. It was a beautiful thing to see.
2. The relationship between Sloane and her dad was pretty fabulous. These two definitely shared a special bond, and I loved their interactions. It was easy to see where Sloane got her wit and humor from too.
3. I loved the twins so much! Gabe and Vera were quite a pair. They played off each other so well, but they also were there for one another and supported each other. Both were still working through their grief from their mother's death, and I was just so happy that the universe brought them into Sloane's life.
4. The search for the painting was something I really enjoyed. I absolutely adored the excursions, which led them to more excursions as Sloane's obsession with the painting escalated.
5. Gabe and Sloane and the slow burn for the win. These two danced around each other for almost the whole book, but I enjoyed the way they were feeling each other out, and their banter was so, so good. They also were able to uncover parts of each other they kept hidden from the world, and connections like that are gold.
If you asked me what I loved about this book, I would have to say EVERYTHING! Once again, Emma Mills has won my heart, made me smile, and left me wanting more.
