A book I’m keeping as a reminder it exists—as a queer person with OCD it made me feel seen in a way no other book has. It is funny and sexy and intense at times, but it also deals with mental health and love and romance in honest ways.

~Personal Review~
This is it. This is the rom-com book that I’ve been waiting for!😻 The representation of OCD, anxiety, and depression in a relationship was just so beautifully written and relatable. I felt like I could relate so much to Charlie and Dev in how they feel and react in their ups and downs of their relationships, both platonic and romantic. 🎭 I loved how they both prioritized getting healthy and stable alone before reuniting. Also their chemistry was so good, and their dialogue was funny and sexy! This book made me laugh, cry, gasp, and grin… 😉 Also the BIPOC and queer representation was beautiful.🌸 

~Random Thoughts~
When I say “eat the rich” and “white men suck,” NEVER do I mean Charlie Winshaw. 👔 … as an occasional Bachelor watcher, the parody of it was hilarious!
