BOTM read for January 2023.
After the first chapter with an adorable meet cute, the main protagonist became very hard to like with how she acted over the next 90 or so pages and that made for some slow reading. BUT once certain things are revealed, the book and Liv become much more enjoyable - especially almost any moment shared between Liv and Bennett as well as the final third of the book. Plus it had a great relationship with Liv and her grandmother
After getting past the rough start, I really did enjoy this book - just didn’t love it.
