The banter and chemistry was great! I also loved the political background of both these characters. This version of the US is idealistic and nice to see. I liked the character depth and diversity too! Lots of lines made me laugh out loud too. I wish there weren’t so many sex scenes and swearing; the book would have been not quite as long lol. It just felt like the middle of the book was just them being thirsty. This book moved fast at the beginning, but around halfway through I didn’t know where the book was heading because of the pacing and the endless sex scenes. Overall, I really enjoyed this book though! A quintessential LGBTQIA+ romcom.

This could be a good book, for me it lacks a lot of elements I enjoy about this genre and the use of real world countries and political system while changing some parts of it but not others for seemingly no reason made less sense the more it went on. The character development was mediocre and the tropes felt tired and stretch. There's some great moments but overall this just wasn't as good as the hype around it had built it up to be for me. It felt like every time there was development it would regress again in writing quality and character development.

This is not the review this book deserves-if you want a lovely, sweet queer love book to read, this is for you! Absolutely the fluff I needed in my life.
