Fair warning: I adored this book!
I went out to my terrace at 10.30am, with a cup of coffee and this lovely book in hand, and I didn't stop reading until I finished at 15.10pm same day. Took one break for a quick lunch and a toilet break, but otherwise didn't leave my spot. I was so immersed from the first podcast excerpt that slowly brings us into the story. I'm still letting it sit and deciding what makes my heart ache over this story so much, but I can say with certainty that the base feeling is love and nothing less than.
As an ace person the way both Frances and Aled experience love and show affection really hit home for me, and I really like that we can see the inner workings of Frances thoughts during all different situations. Aleds coming out to Daniel felt so sweet and special... It wasn't anything big and showy, they were just having a sincere chat about their relationship and that is how it should, in my opinion.
I'd go more in depth but I highly recommend everyone read it !!!! It is so lovely and fun and just . overall stunning. You'll be on page 50 before you know it<3
