Opening Belle

The character's growth felt very authentic and relatable. I'm curious about what inspired the author's approach to this personal transformation.

The book balanced lighthearted scenes with more emotional ones so well. I wonder if that was intentional or just how the story naturally evolved.

The city felt almost like a character itself, vibrant and full of life. I'm interested in whether the author has a personal connection to NYC or if it was chosen for its energy.
