I will definitely forget this book in it's entirety next week.
I felt a bit annoyed by the ton of miscommunication; mostly from Emma.
It was pretty good though.

This was okay - not terrible but not very good either. I think this is a good premise, but the pacing is really strange. There’s also an over-reliance on miscommunication, it causes pretty much all of the big and small obstacles/problems the characters face. I think the characters are also underdeveloped - by the end of the book I still didn’t really feel like I knew them, and it felt like all of their depth was told to me, not shown.

If you like a slow burn, this is for you. I really enjoyed this simple cute romance book, queer romance is so underrepresented and this book fills a nice niche of slow burn trope heavy but all sweet and lovey romance. The very end holds a small bit of well written smut, I wish it had been explored throughout the whole book as their relationship developed, but I understand why it had to be the very end. I disliked the introduction of the SA/SH in hollywood direction but mostly because it was depressing and took me out of the fantasy happy romance, not because it was boring or upsetting. Cute famous person x assistant trope. Well fledged characters even the side ones. Enjoyed this book.

I read it in a day while having a headache, and it definitely made my day better.
I loved this book so much, its complex themes and light-hearted approach. I was just completely rooting for them and it was fun to have a lot of twists and hold-backs.
It would be a really good book-club book.

I was expecting a fast-paced and silly, cute time, but this was so boring. There’s no major plot points until 70% in, and I wouldn’t even call this a “slow burn” because I felt no tension or yearning between the characters. The dynamic was odd and the age gap (14 years) was too much for me to enjoy. None of the characters nor the plot were memorable. Overall a bummer, sadly!
