if any of my co-workers see this, yes i AM embarrassed (i literally bought my own copy so no one had to witness me check this out, lol). anyways! like the main character, i am also a student worker at my college library, so my curiosity got the better of me when i saw this book, and i had to read it. i was afraid it would be too misrepresenting and cringey for me to enjoy, but i did like it! however, this book is wayyy smuttier than anything i normally read, so i’m definitely out of my league here. i did find the characters lovable enough though, and i think it would’ve been nice to see more fluffy scenes of them. perhaps i’ll become the first person in history to seek out fan-fiction that’s actually less explicit than the source material??? lol. but seriously, jokes aside, while this book wasn’t my usual cup of tea, it’s very cute and fun and if you like steamier books i definitely recommend this one! and i see that the author has a second installment coming next year, which i’m curious about, so i’ll definitely keep my eyes peeled for that!

4.5

she’s a solid 4.5.

tbh, I wasn’t expecting much, and the first 20% had me groaning in a mix of hate for the main character and lowkey secondhand embarrassment. some of the lines are cringy (especially her friend’s motivational speech after the birthday party), but that’s to be expected from a wattpad book.

that said, kendall and vincent are really cute, and even if it was instalove-ish, i’m willing to ignore that because of all the nice little moments of banter. also, that smut scene was so cute it had me kicking my feet and blushing in a uni lecture.

This fmc's pov was cringe and pls girl, stop lusting all over the place. All of her inner monologues were just so annoying. Also, she said she hates the miscommunication trope in books, but then she engages in a whole unnecessary miscommunication with the boy she likes. Seriously, they didn't have any chemistry or tension between them, and they only met about four times!! During that time, they didn't even have a good conversation. The whole insta-love situation is so weird. By the end, you can't convince me that these two human beings would last long in a relationship.

This book drops you right into the middle of the action and then pulls you away only for the main character to find a reason back into it. This is a quick, playful read that is self aware and acknowledges a lot of romance tropes. Some of the jokes had me laughing out loud! The characters don’t have a lot in common, but the chemistry is written so well that it’s still worth it. 

If you dislike characters who makes the same mistake over and over again, Kendall is not the girl for you. Her insecurities are so frustrating when even she identifies her fatal flaw early on!

I loved this so much and I would re-read again and again! Sweet characters that take time to communicate and listen. I loved every second and couldn't put it down! Loved the FMC's best friends and how they aren't afraid to call her out on her bull too! Absolutely fantastic read and just what I needed!
