Well, fuck. The cheating dad made me cry. Not sob, but a few tears trickled out here and there. And that last part with Shadi made me cry too because it reminded me of my friends, and I love my friends. Shadi was so perfectly my favorite character.

As for the rest, well. I get it, okay? I GET it!! He has a crooked mouth, liquidy dark eyes, messy hair, and rumpled clothes!!!! Got violent flashbacks of shining orbs all over fics (not that that's a bad thing, really. It was just funny how often it was mentioned).

I liked People We Meet On Vacation a lot better. Here, it took me so long to warm up to the main characters, I feel like it dragged on a bit too much at the beginning. But I ended up liking them just fine. I didn't like Pete at all, though. She was very annoying.

The plot was really good even if it took a while to both take off AND land, in my humble opinion. There's just something about broken people finding comfort in each other. In the end, this particular take was not exactly my cup of tea, but I drank it anyways. And I DID cry a bit so I for sure had a good time.
