Miscellaneous thoughts (spoiler free)
As someone with anxiety, reading about Harper’s story made me feel connected and seen in a way which I am typically not used to in literature. For that I am thankful:)
Insta love is not one of my favorite tropes, but that is no fault of the book just my own personal preference!
The dentist school setting was unlike anything I had read before (romance and other) which I really enjoyed!

I love the scene where Harper talks about honey mushrooms relating it to her anxiety. That had me feeling things. The book was a bit too insta-lovey for me and the last 20% had me a little underwhelmed. But, I enjoy the characters, I like Harper’s drive and determination.
