The "twist" is easy to spot but it made me so excited to see everything lead up to it and comes in the middle of the book so there is plenty of time for more drama and apologies. The overall plot was strong and though the romance was heavy, there were other subplots that talked about disabilities, familial relationships, friendships and other trials of life that keep the book thoroughly engaging.

I’m so glad I listened to this book instead of just read it. The dialogue is it’s strongest aspect with excellent humor, realistic conversations/arguments, and banter. Lots of banter.
I enjoyed these characters and this unique story.

That said, I felt like it tried to do too much. 400 pages was too long for my liking and the meta-ness didn’t quite hit for me. I liked that it got into industry details. That was fascinating! But the “is this romance or is it women’s fiction” ended up feeling muddled for me overall
I liked the characters and the mixed media elements (texts, emails) but this one wasn’t a knockout for me personally
