“I know I’m a mess. I know … I know I’m not easy to love…” 

“Harper, loving you is the easiest thing I’ll ever do.”

this book was so sweet it gave me cavities. listen, if the characters of this book were allowed to make dental related puns so can i.

a brush with love was absolutely adorable and hilarious but it also was quite heavy at times—but i didn’t mind it. there was always a good balance between the heavy and the light. there were some issues i had (such as the pacing and certain things/choices characters made) but once again my love for the characters and book as a whole outweighed the bad. and i loved this book. it filled me with so much serotonin and genuinely made me laugh out loud (actually laugh and not just where you suck in a huge gust of air and exhale it).

also, this whole book felt very ali hazelwood like. that’s not a critique. it’s a compliment. i cannot wait to read the sequel and see what kind of ridiculous situations that will transpired. and i can’t wait to catch up with dan, harper, judy the cat, alex, thu, indira, lizzie (and her mysterious love interest), and the rest of the characters. except the giles brothers. they better not make a reappearance.

“Harper, have you ever had the overwhelming urge to rip out your reproductive tract and use the fallopian tubes to choke the stupidity out of men? Because that’s where I’m at.”
