Great rep & a really snarky MC!

This sweet and quirky rom-com blends real-life rivalries with anonymous online flirtations. Did I see the major plot points coming? Sure. Did it matter? Not so much. Big points for sensitive treatment of asexuality!

I wish we got an epilogue also, 
how did Leo not realize it was Wren when the CHICKENS exist?? not that many people have chickens dude


reminded me of Tweet Cute by Emma Lord, so definitely check that out if you liked this

- 3.5-4/5
- Ace! Rep!
- I like that Wren is, and excuse my language, a little bit of a bitch. He's a teenage boy! He's irrational and messy and rash, yes, but still innately kind. 
- realistic problems with realistic reactions (given that they are dramatic teenagers in high school)
- I really love that Leo rejects Wren (at first). Thank God for self-preservation and knowing that you deserve better! Consequently, I am glad that Wren sincerely apologizes for how unfairly he's treated Leo. Not only does Leo genuinely deserve that apology, but Wren needs to learn how to apologize, too! I still strugle with this, but, when your humor is mostly sarcastic and cutting, there is a thin line between humor and hurt. 
- That being said, I wish that we saw Wren and Leo navigating how to be a couple, with Wren trying not to hurt Leo anymore (i.e. tone down his biting sarcasm), and Leo learning to trust Wren.

- I wish that Wren and his fathered talked.
