warnings: breaking up, cheating on a girlfriend
summary: Ivy is happy to be back working at her childhood summer camp after getting dumped by her long-distance, television-star girlfriend. Unfortunately, what should be her safe space becomes unpleasant when she finds out that her ex-friend Rynn, who friend-dumped Ivy five years earlier, also works at the camp. And what's even worse, the camp director makes them co-direct the summer musical.
tropes:
- enemies-to-lovers
- famous girlfriend
- forced proximity
- back to camp
what I liked: great LGBTQ representation without making same-sex couples seem like something that needs to be explained.
what I didn’t like: Ivy is quite brooding and lacking in self-awareness for almost all of the novel, and in the end, all of a sudden, she understands everything.
overall rating: 3 (of 5 stars)
