⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ EASIEST 5 STAR OF 2021

This book is NAUSEATINGLY CUTE. I am TRASH for it. Usually I hate when books drag on, but I DID NOT WANT THIS TO END. 

God, did I laugh. I cried. I had to take a few breathers because of how heart-hiccupy this made me feel. I.... am overjoyed.

Spoilers ahead (but hidden) so lets TALK ABOUT IT.

Evie. Spectacular. Unapologetically her. Brave, funny, kind, and basically everything I aspire to be. She was such a rich, complex character, with her own insecurities and tragic histories and self-doubt, and I loved her for every bit of it.

The story. WOW. I haven't read anything so heart-wrenchingly adorable in a LONG time. Usually I would only care about the romance and would give little attention to any b or c-plot, but I COULD NOT get enough of this. Her meet-cutes. Her writing. Her friends. I literally loved (very nearly) every word of this book. Every page. 

Based on the blurb, I truly thought
this was going to be an enemies-to-lovers book about Evie and Ezra. And I was HERE for it. And for the first half of the book, I had little suspicion. I thought, 'oh, a love triangle, okay'. And I was torn between Ezra and Ben because Ezra was, like, witty. And Cute. And sarcastic. of course, halfway through, I had my suspicions of his real intentions (and i was right) but like, I didn't even CARE that it was kind of predictable.
I could not read this fast enough. I HAD to know what happened. I HAD TO KNOW.

And then, of course,
Ben is a-fucking-dorable. And Anette was also a-fucking-dorable. And the three of them were A-FUCKING-DORABLE. Did I roll my eyes at Evie's OBVIOUS blindness to Ben? Hell yes. but I loved her all the more for it. And I loved him. His secret pining. Oh, how I go SOFT at the knees for secret pining. Even NOB surprised me in the end. Good for you, NOB, not being a complete NOB for once.


My ONLY complaint (and this is the true romantic in me) was that the actual
kissing scenes
were too brief. Not an afterthought exactly, but never as truly satisfying as my heart desired. My butthole clenched in anticipation. And then... meh. Wrapped up in a sentence. Next chapter. NO, WINTERS. GIVE ME THE JUICY BITS. I NEED THEM. I will also admit i was expecting a bit of smut, considering the norm of the NA romance genre, but I honestly wasn't missing it (too much). And.......... tbh i was like, the TINIEST bit disappointed in that epilogue. Was a little on-the-nose. BUT I WILL FORGIVE.
This book is dang cute.

All the stars. All of them. Even if I'm tempting to take one off because of how LONELY I FEEL NOW.
