swoon!! this book gave me butterflies and had me giggling left and right. so many loveable characters, and great 2019 dialogue. the modern dialogue didn’t feel forced, it was exactly how my friends and i talk making it easy to read. a world i wish we lived in (no pandemic, female president, prominent political gays in us and uk). i think this is my cap for romance novels, the plot was interesting enough to hook me, if it’s any more sappy and less plot driven than this i don’t think I’d enjoy it. I did find myself struggling to finish the last 100 or so pages because it was so predictable, but when i sat down to finish it, it was easy and still fun to read.

I liked this book a lot. It was previously a DNF read for me, but I’m so glad I gave it another chance. It’s funny, compelling, and romantic. It was a fun read and had great dynamics and representation.
