Anyways, this was good for the first 50% then it just went downhill from there. They were cute in the first half. First of all the amount of time Wyatt called Hannah "bookworm" was unnecessary like if you were to take a shot every time he called her that you would have alcohol poisoning and probably be close on the verge of death lol.
Second, I'm not a big fan of the whole "girl gives herself a makeover and now the guy is into her" trope. He did like her pre makeover but his feelings got amplified once she started changing her looks and the type of clothes she started wearing and I didn't like that. I'm a big believer in the saying that someone should like you the way you are, you shouldn't have to change yourself for someone to like you. (Unless you have serious toxic traits/red flags or something)
Third of all there was some things that simply made me cringe. Overall it wasn't the best thing I ever read but it wasn't the worst thing so that's still a win.

This book makes me believe that you CAN show characters falling in love instead of just telling us they love each other. That is one of my BIGGEST complaints with romance books, the author will write it in a way where the characters “love each other” but not show us how they got there. Over a month or so of existing near each other where we only see them interacting a few times makes it hard to believe. but this book to me at least seems to take a span of like 2-3 months and yes we don’t see the whole time but it goes from around June /July to September at least I’m pretty sure but i might be wrong
Books like, icebreaker, a million kisses in your lifetime, the flatshare(a better love is blind tbh), all rhodes lead here show the love growing between two characters well.
this has just turned into a rant about authors not showing how the character fall in love well which don’t get me wrong i do enjoy books that have that “problem” it’s just less believable.
okay anyway enjoyed this book idk if i enjoyed it more then That Kind of Guy but i will be reading in your dreams holden rhodes next i think so.

You know r/AmItheAsshole? How there's NTA, YTA, NAH, etc.? The third act conflict had me feeling like ESH. (everyone sucks here.)
Otherwise it was fast paced and nothing to write home about. Lots of praise kink which I loved so if that's your thing, voila.
