Do not let the cover of this book fool you. The font may be cutsie and YA, but the content… is not. I just know someone is going to pick this up this it’s a sweet little rom com and then get smacked in the face when they get to the first *group activity.* I was completely compared to give this book a 4 out 5 rating but I don’t think I’d change a thing about it. It has so many layers and nuances that makes it incredibly special.
The exploration of social media and reality television was a really interesting addition to what could be a perfectly enjoyable romance book. I particularly appreciated the flashbacks to the FMC’s time and emotional response to going on what should have been a perfectly normal dating reality tv show.
