DID NOT FINISH: 8%

I like the premise of this book a lot, and the first chapter is cute. It's been tough for me to get into contemporary setting romances lately, and the repetitive narrative quirks (champagne dream, champagne reality, bubbly dream, bubbly champagne dream, bubbly sparkly champagne reality) took me out of the story.

I found the overall style of the book not quite my taste. That being said, this book is exactly what I needed. It is a good story for people struggling with finding and accepting themselves.

Probably one of the best and most beautiful books I've ever read, I must go back and reread this. The prose, the story, the humor, the emotion. I think I cried happy tears throughout the ENTIRE book. All the different relationships and joys and struggles navigated so poignantly. Love love love
