About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a breezy, feel-good teen fantasy with friendship at the center and a simple romance, in the vein of The Princess Diaries or Freaky Friday; Not for you if you dislike bubbly, cliché-heavy tween stories.
Pros: sweet summer vibe; friendship-first message; light fantasy fun | Cons: packed with clichés; very tween-targeted; uneven, sometimes slow
