This was an amazing read! It was fun, emotional and fantastic all around. I loved the characters, the premise and the story itself.
It lost a quarter star for me due to really detailed descriptions of animal bodies and secretions. This may not bother others at all, but I found those passages tough to get through. YMMV.

Sexual content of NB character is explicit without being overly descriptive! Respectfully avoids description of genitals.loverofeels's review against another edition

reading a romance novel with a main character who has (almost) the same name as me is a dangerous game, but this book was so good that i think it actually improved my reading experience (<- cringe admission)
aside from a few small things (ex. a paragraph where london describes dahlia much in the same way a straight male mc in a movie would describe his MPDG love interest) i have almost no complaints. i loved reading about them swoon over each other and will def be recommending this!!

Ngl this was the first, and only book as of right now, I've read with a non-binary character so I have no books to compare it to, but as a non-binary person myself I think if you're lookin for good nb rep this book is an amazing choice. Both London and Dahlia are such real characters with human flaws and relatable personalities. And the whole setting of the story is unlike anythin I've ever read before, you get to worry about the outcome of the completion along with the characters. It's a very gripping story. Oh, and it's 🌶!

A romance novel set against the backdrop of a cooking competition show, a queer leading lady and a pansexual nonbinary love interest. I was like - say less, I'm down, and I'm so glad I did.
This was just so damn good. The chemistry between these two was almost too much for me most of the time. They were incredibly steamy together - way steamier than I expected the book to get, but it wasn't unwelcome at all. It had me WIDE EYED a lot of the time in that regard. I also just thought that these two characters, as people, felt really real. They were extremely imperfect and stumbled a ton, but in the end, they were perfect together and I just loved them.
I had little issues here and there, but they were just that: little. Like, they were such non-issues that I never once considered giving this any less than 5 stars. I have nothing intelligent to say about this, just vibes. The best vibes in the *world.*

There's quite a bit of misgendering / misgendering mention but that's not available as an option for me to tag so I'm putting it here.anniereads221's review
