Couldn’t stop myself from smiling the whole time while reading this book. I full heartedly love reading every second of it and found myself able to relate 100% to the main character. The slow burn is there but their love is genuine. “I love you too, Alex Blackwood, she says, and it’s all the things I never knew an I love you could be, meeting me exactly as I am, without a single condition.”

I was laughing always while reading this book. It was such a sweet love story about romantic love, platonic love and self-love. I would have prefer for another thing for the third act, but it was such a good love confession at the end. I was kicking my feet and giggling.

I wish I had read this book when I was a bit younger, the same age as the protagonists. I feel that way not because this book doesn't work for me as an older reader, but because I think it would have helped and comforted me in a way I needed more back then. This is a solid YA wlw romance book. I think it would make a great movie as well, and it's kind of similar to Crush that came out on Hulu. Molly and Alex challenge each other in positive ways, and it's beautiful to see their friendship naturally grow. I was really rooting for both of them not just in terms of the romance but in their own lives and their individual struggles.
