Late Bloomer is a sapphic opposites-attract romance. This novel includes a slow-burn, grumpy x sunshine romance. Neurodiverse representation. It's a cozy, lighthearted read that leaves you feeling hopeful, and rooting for Opal and Pepper.
I truly adored this novel. It had me laughing out loud and sometimes quietly cursing these two. I usually really loathe a miscommunication trope, but this one I felt was done tastefully. Maybe, it's because I am neurodiverse myself. I could easily relate to their communication issues.
Late Bloomer is heartfelt. There wasn't any lack of the Taylor Swift references...which I am here for! Swifties are going to LOVE this book. I loved Pepper's friendship with Diksha, and would have loved to see more of it. Overall, it was a feel-good romance. I needed this.
Thank you NetGalley for this ARC.
