❤️ The Heart Principal ❤️
Another great set of characters and I think I enjoyed this one even more than The Kiss Quotient.
Some heavier issues in this story which I think were dealt with very well and sensitively written.
I’ve realised I should have read a book in between these two, so I’ll catch up on that one next!
Thank you to @netgalley and @corvusbooks for my ecopy

It was nice to read more about Quan, I find him a really interesting character.
Anna is a complicated character but I loved her and wanted to protect her. Getting her diagnosis was an absolute breakthrough for her and I enjoyed reading about her growing as a character.
Some heavier issues in this story which I think were dealt with very well and sensitively written. Quan’s lack of self confidence after his operation was interesting and I really felt for him at how vulnerable he was feeling.
I found myself wanting to shout at the book when Anna’s sister and ex boyfriend were belittling her, I refrained though as I would have looked a bit odd!

A very sweet romance with more to say than many. This was recommended for the "by a disabled or neurodivergent author" square on the BPL summer reading bingo, and I'm so glad I read it!
