It was a cute romance and it definitely has a punch with it's subject matter. I think tiktok might have sold it a little bit too much for what it was but I still really enjoyed it.
If I'm being completely honest, some of the stars in my rating Im giving myself because of my amazing playlist that encapsulated the vibes front to back of this book and it was fantastic. I know the book is set throughout summers but it felt more like a transitional book into autumn which I really liked.
Iwan was probably my favourite of the characters (though admittedly there's only him and Clementine worthy of merit) but I can not picture him in my head as anything other than the Bear. I can't see ginge curls and white eyes on a man in his mid 20s. Also very surprised his favourite colour wasn't blue but that was probably one of the best scenes in the book.
I really liked the direction the ending took and glad that they chose to start fresh for themselves and grow together rather than dwelling on the only thing that really brought them together.
I will add here, is it really a romance book if the fmc isn't a millennial having a career crisis? seriously i want a girl who is stable in her career and actually enjoys what she's doing until she doesn't. it's getting quite predictable
i did predict that there wouldn't be much plot about 80 pages in and i still maintain that it was more just vibes but i don't necessarily think that's a bad thing. the time travel did confuse me when he admits to her that he knew and had met her when she was 22. it only took me to the last 20 pages when i could kind of understand what he had actually meant but I'm still trying to wrap my head around it.
Overall, i did enjoy this and do think it's a pretty solid read but honestly, if i forget any of the subject matter in like a week i honestly wouldn't be that surprised. all the more reason for a re-read.
