I really enjoyed the premise of this book; an enemies to lovers reverse harem with a rock band on tour, HEAVY on the bully trope. It was hot, fun, and full of angst, yet had a lot of emotional factors too.

This book was a slow, slow burn. The bully cycle was on rinse and repeat, and they had miscommunications galore. Keeping up with this crew's hot and cold tension gave me some serious whiplash, but I knew what I signed up for.

Each of the three men were different enough in personalities and their individual relationships with the FMC, but I still found myself having to double check halfway through each chapter to remind myself whose POV I was reading.

I also found that the synesthesia was a little much sometimes. I totally understand it's role in the story, but it was mentioned so much it was hammered to death rather than just into your head.

So I just finished reading Lilac by B.B Reids. Idk how I feel about it tbh. I thought I would hate it (when I eventually figured out what was going on) but it surprised me and it was okayish. The book was definitely not my style but the writing was good and the author knew what she was doing... Story is about 3 Rockstars who are looking for a new guitarist, before their world tour and their manager hires a girl called Braxton, and they all thought Braxton was a guy until they met her.
The 3 guys were not impressed, and they shunned her out, were rude, and ignored her most of the time. But they all thought she was hot. So she eventually dates all 3 of them 💀 don't know how. Definitely not my cup of tea I don't think I'll read something like that again.
