I liked the way this began but I slowly lost interest. I think Grace is v depressed and needs therapy not to run to NY. I can't find it in me to care much more about how this ends. Loved the representation. Queer woman, women of color, AAPI, disability rep...I mean it was great but also a bit lackluster.

This was June’s pick in the Calgareads Bookclub. I had no club what this was about I was getting it mixed up with a different book.when I started reading it and it was sapphic I thought perfect it’s Pride month and I have been trying to read more sapphic books. It didn’t work for me. I like the premise of marrying a stranger and finding them again and falling in love. I didn’t care for it overall. I didn’t really like any characters, they were all immature for being the ages they are. Honey Girl (I can’t remember her actual name because she had like 3) was not in control of her life at all and she’s 28. That’s wild to me. Or definitely read like a YA book, which isn’t an issue because I like YA but it shouldn’t have, given their ages.
There were too many unforgettable characters, I can’t even remember anyone’s names. Just not a read for me.

Man i’m actually half rereading this book i started like a year ago but i remember really liking it but as i reread it it didn’t really live up to my memory. But as I kept reading I grew to like it. I love how the main character describes her love interest and how the love interest describes her. The ending was nice so all in all a good book :)
i just didn’t connect with the writing style, i have friends who rave about this book, and while im sure it’s a great relatable story about a burnt out gifted sapphic woman of color finding her place in life, it just wasn’t for me.

This is not a romance story so much as a coming of age story. The romance is more a subplot. I went into this thinking it was a rom-com. It is definitely not a rom-com. It's more a multicultural contemporary fiction coming of age story. The writing style is more lyrical and told in Grace's POV. It was repetitive, and it became annoying every time I heard "Grace Porter," a very slow read for me, and it really didn't get interesting until the last 1/3 of the book. This was not for me, but I can see how many would love this story.
this book is so lovely, but be warned the romance is not a central point of the story!! the synopsis definitely leads you to be believe this mainly is about Grace's and Yuki's love story, but its definitely more focused on mental health and Grace's late coming of age. i feel everyone can relate to this book is some way regarding mental health, complex parent relationships, burnout, and so much more. i absolutely adored the LGBTQIA+ representation and the beautiful friendships in Portland and New York! the elements on r*cism and microaggressions in higher education and academic fields with very little representation of POC was amazing and so well done! i recommend this book to everyone!!
