Overall I really enjoyed this book!
However it felt like every 45 pages (or less) there needed to be a beat taken to explain adhd or ocd. And as someone who has knowledge and experience with them it felt forced and really annoying. I'm a little to chronically online for this mental health representation. It was like a 101 lesson on an illness I've experienced first hand AND have several friends and family that also experience.
I loved loved loved the chemistry between Jack and Raine! And all the side characters were a delight!!!
