I am soso grateful to have recieved an ARC of this story.
I had been in a dark place and Star and Rafe's story was like a best friend's hug that makes everything better.
I love the lightheartedness of RomComs in general but Samantha Young manages somehow to break my heart and then stitch it back together in just one book. Rafe and Star's (hers even more so) story is so relatable and touching. The pressure from their parents, how their whole lives have been molded from the views of their parents.. beautifully written
Hugo and Pippa's moods gave me whiplash honestly but I think it mostly hurt because I know so many people exactly like them haha
I just know that this book is going to be my comfort book from now on and I can't wait to and the physical copy to my shelf ❤️
