The setting affects the mood of the story a lot because most of the romantic parts happen when Tony and libby are alone or at a romantic place. Some examples from the book is; when Tony and Libby were under the mistletoe, they kissed because it was also a romantic place and the mood of the story was loving and happy. Also, when Libby was staying in Tony's room and they played Monopoly all night, the mod of the story was thrilling and exciting. Also when Tony was at Libby's house and brought her soup. I think the mood there was cozy and warm. I think that the setting of the story does affect the mood of the story.
