"The story unfolds slowly, allowing space for Levi and Brodie’s relationship to sweetly bloom, with pranks and sarcastic banter thrown into the mix . . . Funny and vulnerable characters populate this quirky town. Thoughtfully weaves a mystery into a poignant tale about a young woman finding home." — Kirkus Reviews
"Brodie’s narration is whip-smart, but her dry wit is tempered by the excerpts of the letters, which have a poignant sense of longing. The dynamics between Brodie, Eli, and Levi are authentically messy, with realistic worries about what their pasts mean for their future. The romance . . . is delightfully sweet, bringing the story to a wholesome end." — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
