The protagonist's experience with high school social hierarchies felt intense and almost cinematic. I'm curious if that’s how others see it or if it was heightened for the story.

The blend of romance and coming-of-age themes really captures the high school vibe. Wondering if there was a particular memory or idea that sparked this setting.

There are some genuinely funny scenes but also heartfelt ones. Did the author aim for a certain tone, or did it develop naturally during writing?
