I feel on the fence with this one, but I am not sure why. The premise is unique and thoughtful. The characters are nuanced and complex. Put that together and it should be a sure-fire win. But for me, I don't feel it grabbed me the way I wanted it to. I do feel the first half told the MMC's story and the later half told the FMC's story. This was not something I realized until the end, but it really worked. There were definitely many cute moments. I recommend for those who want to read more indie authors.
