The romance in this book was GOOD. Loved the ASD representation, though as someone without the disorder I cannot speak on whether it was accurate or not. Will definitelyyyy be reading more from Helen Huang. 

I removed a star because I started to get frustrated with Michael’s character. He was so frustrated by Philip’s nonconsensual kisses toward Stella but did the same thing at the end in an act of “love”. Stella still said no & at this point Michael was showing more toxic possesiom of her than cute, sexy posession. Also hated Michael’s little obsession with fucking a teacher. It’s not cute and sexualizes my profession 🙃 no thank you.
