Workplace Romance
Coming Out Later in Life

I absolutely loved all the queer rep in this book.  The small-town romance I didn't even know I needed.  The friendships, the side characters, and the setting were all so lovely too.  I love the vibe of Bright Falls and I was happy to read more from this world.  It was also lovely to read more about Astrid and getting to see her find out who she is without her mother controlling everything.  It was so satisfying to see her character development.

A little slow to capture my full-attention, this book made up for that with a sweet second half. It’s an enemies to lovers with some forced proximity which was an okay plot line but not my favorite. There’s a little spice but not as much as other romance novels. Overall it was cute, fun, and enjoyable.

God I love the comedy and I wished Astrid was more of a bisexual disaster. Also the romance was a let down because Jordan didn't want to be used and heart broken but that quickly was dismissed and yeah.. better as friends than lovers at least until the third book.
