This book started with cringe is my brand where all the meet cute moments were intentionally incredibly awkward but it grew from there and I ended up very emotionally invested by the end. There was solid character and relationship growth.

This was an absolutely brilliant read. The characters are so real and human in away I’ve never read in a romcom before. The character development is stellar and the author is not afraid to give them actual flaws that actual people have. Adored the romance. The chemistry is there from the beginning and the banter is witty and adorable. Definitely added to my list of favorites!

i haven’t felt this level of heartache and frustration from a friends to lovers since reading People We Meet on Vacation 

complex characters like ari can sometimes be a hard pill to swallow to swallow. the frustrating part wasn’t her immature coping mechanisms or avoidance techniques, but how she got in her own way on the path to happiness. tho we love a story where she overcomes her personal hurdles 🩵 

i saw a tonnnnn of myself in josh. & if someone gifted me a little piece of myself back with a cereal bowl, that would have been it for me. best dust daddy ever. 

inside jokes like the ones in this book are my absolute favorite, on par with emily henry’s books and giving me emotional turmoil all the same. 

4 stars ⭐️
