Ooof, what a mess. There is only a sliver of a "plot", but it was still a rollercoaster of emotions. At various times I was bored, annoyed, horrified, grossed out, and confused. Please check the content warnings!
If you don't like the miscommunication trope, skip this book. The two main characters can't have a full conversation, ever. If you don't like the insta-love trope, skip from this book. If you don't like repetition every chapter, run from this book. It is structured to be dual perspective narrative, but dual pov isn't repeating the exact same scene with the exact same dialogue and only changing tiny things like who is smiling. Makes you think you got stuck in a time loop and kept reading the same chapter over and over again.
The FMC is intolerable. Why does the MMC like her? She smells good. Brace yourself for page after page of smell descriptions. Ack!
Overall this was not a good experience. Skip this book.
