Note: I received this book from the author/publisher in exchange for an honest review. 
 I'm a sucker for books written in letter format. Always have been (there are so many middle grade books written in letter style and I devoured them as a kiddo) and probably always will be. This was a really nice take on the format and I enjoyed the way the story unfolded through the letters. Set in the early 1980's, two friends, Cath and Scott, write to each other as they explore life after high school. It wasn't too overtly 80's, which was kind of nice (sometimes books get over the top "DID WE MENTION THIS WAS THE 80'S?!?! NEON-HAIRSPRAY-SHOULDER PADS-MADONNA-NO CELL PHONES!" and just throw in all sorts of cliche period things). I really enjoyed the friendship between the two characters, it was relatively normal and relatable, no one was perfect and sometimes friendships have rough patches. There was a little of every type of emotion included but it was all well done. Overall I had a great time reading this and read this so quickly because I just couldn't stop. (Maybe I enjoy the letter format because it feels vaguely voyeuristic. Like I'm actually reading someone's real mail. Maybe I'm a sicko who gets a kick out of snooping. Whatever.)
