The beginning of this book had me absolutely locked in and devouring it. I loved the idea of it, loved the use of fandom, and loved the plus size representation. April and Marcus have such a cute little romance and it was just a really feel good romance that is easy to read and enjoyable. Then you hit the 3/4 mark and it starts to drag out. It’s like they’re already happy and together and had two breakups and it’s still going. I think the Marcus is both famous actor and also secretly her online best friend thing is such a good idea but I don’t like how it was handled and I find the resolution to it rushed. I think the end pacing could be better or maybe if it had just had less mini break ups in the beginning it could’ve been a more balanced ending.
Overall, I liked the book and would definitely read her next one in the series!
