I love how different Alex and Henry's relationship is from their emails to the way they act together 😭😭😭 Their emails to each other made me feel things I never thought a romance novel would make me feel,and this is coming from a romance novel hater.. Anyways I'll be sobbing for the rest of eternity..

History, Huh?

5.0

A sweet love story between two characters with amazing chemistry. I didn't love reading the political parts, even if it was fiction, but they were integral to the worlds of the characters. I would honestly love a sequel.

I wanted to like this but ultimately felt very pulled out of the narrative by the whip-fast romance. The celebrity angle felt like it had more potential but was difficult to connect with in practice. Nor was I surprised or compelled by other parts of book. If you're in the mood for a silly historical re-write and have the imagination to flesh out the narrative, then this book might suit you. Sending good vibes to the author and all those who enjoyed this book!

I had high expectations for this book due to all the hype surrounding it and it did not disappoint! This was such a fun, cute story, and I absolutely loved it! Henry and Alex's dynamic together and relationship was so well written, and I loved the dynamic of all of the friendships in this too! 
I listened to this as an audiobook and it was a really engaging and easy listen which I liked.

I'm not really into reading LGBTQ+ romance, but this one was very well-written and made me laugh a lot. I also saw a lot of character development even though this book is a standalone.
