This was actually… so different from other books of the sort! I’m positively surprised. I needed something light and without much thinking needed after all the finals stress.
Also what a breath of fresh air to see a heroine be unapologetically herself and not a shy, annoying damsel in distress. Loved that part! Also a little less “I love you so much XY” towards the end would have been wonderful in my opinion. I know it’s a romance book but one and done would suffice.
