I enjoyed the romance a lot and the friendship dynamics. However, sometimes, for a bunch of 30-year-olds they could be a bit unfiltered ( *cough* Iris *cough* ).
As someone who went through some bullying, I couldn't love the indifference and mean comments they had for Delilah growing up and be all good with the present. I would have preferred if this wasn't a friend's sister trope and if Delilah was just the school misfit.
I love every bit of Claire's scenes with Ruby and how she thinks of her daughter and her love live.
It's spicy, but not heavy in quantity or kinkiness.
The ending was fulfilling and very romantic which got me happy.

My main complaint, which is why the rating is a bit low, is that it's just too long. Certain plot points take a long time to develop and resolve. I couldn't believe I still had a quarter of the book left, when most of the main plot points were finished. There were some scenes that definitely could have been consolidated and tightened up. I don't love when I'm enjoying a book in the beginning, just to end up waiting for it to finally end. Leave me wanting more lol
