Romance isn't usually my genre of choice but I particularly enjoyed the easy read of LGBTQ+ relationships. I liked the writing style and pacing. Although it isn't my favourite book I've ever read it was fully enjoyable even for a non-romance book lover .

This was a great little fluffy read. It was so nice to see two women fall in love.

At times the book was a little cringey or cliche and sometimes the characters were a bit immature but I think it’s because they had a lot of unresolved trauma. I really liked Iris and Delilah’s back and forth banter. It was nice to see how these ladies’ relationships developed. The sex scenes were very beautiful and well-written. I did feel like sometimes the author over emphasized their queerness and feminism to the point where the sentence was a little awkward or cringey.

All in all a very cute read. I enjoyed it.

I don’t know who I related too more - Delilah or Claire (or even Astrid, actually) but MAN this story tugged at my heart. And it had some goood spice to boot! 🥵 🌶️

Is anyone else into the Enneagram and finds yourself typing characters as you read books?

I went back and forth on Delilah the whole time - either 4w3 or 8w9. By the end I was leaning 8w9. Claire is a 9w1, Astrid a 1w9, and Iris a 8w7. I will take no other opinions, those three are just facts lol

I also tried something new with this read! This was my first experience with audio books and I gotta say… it’s not for me. Full respect to those who prefer them, but I am a paperback, physical copy girlie for life I only listened to a few chapters off and on near the end of the book while I was at work, but it felt… idk. Emotionless? There just wasn’t the UMPH behind the words that my own brain puts in. I guess I’ll go back to reading just a little slower as time allows for me to pick up my physical books.
