Was genuinely a good read, I enjoyed it! I thought it was lighthearted and was easy to read- had a similar plot line to other books I've read but nonetheless it was an effective romance book, would recommend giving it a read.

I actually really enjoyed this. It's a very YA focused book with the characters being about my age, which I thought gave it a bit more personality to me. I loved that there was a focus on shows such as the Gilmore Girls and other romance movies with the quotes at the beginning of the chapters. I really feel like it made the book a bit more intriguing to me and a lot more personable. I would definitely recommend it, it had good pacing and was just a classic romance book!

Somewhat disappointed, thought it might be a little more 'steamy' and more sophisticated, but I found it to be quite childish. Great quick read, however I think it lacked a lot of depth. I found that the main character annoyed me, in that she refused to listen to what he had to say a lot of the time - just created arguments and plot points that didn't need to happen. Was an easy read but wouldn't pick it up again.

Love this trope when it's done well, and I think this was done... averagely. The idea was definitely there and so was the chemistry, however I think I lacked depth of the characters to fully be immersed in their story. I feel like the friends could have definitely been involved more positively, with the only large interaction with them being during the point of conflict. I also feel like the resolution to the conflict was solved way too quick to make it feel like it was resolved. Was a good read and I enjoyed it, however I wouldn't pick it up again as there are other books that I feel used this trope and plot more effectively.

The use of online lingo was rather impressive, I have to say.
