not my thing…. it was required for school so maybe i would’ve liked it more on my own time but i just hated the ending, didn’t find the characters loveable, and i just didn’t find the world to be that interesting.

I really liked this book. I was annotating this like CRAZY at the beginning. After the 100 page mark, I fell out of it a bit. I was struggling to pick it up because there was just avoidance of the actual romance. I pushed through but after I got to page 200-250 ish, I began to enjoy it more. I absolutely LOVED the ending so overall I enjoyed this a lot.

i was skeptical about reading this book honestly. i heard that there was a 70 page chapter

and a third act conflict

. i was hoping it would be worth the hype because this was my most anticipated book that was very high on my tbr. i couldn’t find it at my local bookstore but i finally was able to get it and it was absolutely worth the hype. i bought it yesterday and finished it yesterday. i’ve never found myself getting addicted to a rom-com but i could not put this down. it was so cute and the slow burn was so good. i’ve read the do-over and i loved her writing and i still do. the characters have so much depth and i was sad but it was still feel good so i wasn’t at all getting bored. it was so cute and sad at the same time and i highly reccomend.
