Who can resist a lesbian love story? Certainly not me! This story was so sweet and funny and filled with love. A bit of a slow burn but otherwise perfect. 😍 Great characters, believable plot, delightful ending. I can’t wait to read more by this author.

This book is funny as hell. That’s my main takeaway. But it’s also very sweet and emotional. I like the switch in perspectives so we could dive into both Delilah and Claire’s thoughts and feelings as their relationship developed. I’m excited to learn more about Astrid and Iris in future books, as they were definitely supporting characters in this one (though still well-developed). Delilah’s childhood story is heartbreaking, and it’s lovely to see her open up throughout the book.

As a side note, I love that it’s not a queer discovery story, but just a story about queer people falling in love

Lives up to the hype. I would love to give it 5 starts but I cannot get over how many times "other woman" was used, it just kept appearing and after a while it started to bother me, a lot.
