the start was a bit bumpy, the ending a bit aprupt and why oh why does he have chest hair 🥲 contemporary fluff whose characters and story could’ve been more fleshed out but was enjoyable nonetheless!

I wish we’d gotten a bit more from Noah. We know almost nothing about how he came to love her. 

But the book itself was somehow still strong and engaging, despite that massive issue. The complex relationship with motherhood was the really heart of the story. That’s why she feels so
betrayed about Noah being Noa. It’s because she projected a role of motherhood onto this author.


I found it interesting, to say the least.

I loved this book! The characters were so endearing and I could really feel their struggles and their victories. The slow-burn was believable and swoony, and it was fun how the story encompassed and also twisted up some of the classic romance tropes. The story-within-the-story was quite beautiful as well.
