Don't Stop the Carnival

The book balances lightheartedness with moments of emotional depth. I'm curious about what inspired this mix and how it shaped the story.

The depiction of the Caribbean setting was vivid and fun, but some parts felt larger-than-life. Did others find it authentic or more romanticized?

The conclusion felt both satisfying and open-ended. I'm wondering what the author might have hoped readers would take away from it.
