So glad I read this! The positive queer rep in this is beautiful and so refreshing to see. There are hard emotional parts and mentions of homophobia, but everyone in here is proud to be queer. I wouldn’t necessarily call this a romcom though, there’s definitely a strong romance plot line but so much of it surrounds other story lines. But that being said, I loved our protagonist and the discussions on gender presentation and the frustrating feelings of presenting in between stereotypical gender aesthetics and gloating back and forth. Great read.

I feel like I only heard negative things about this book but I liked it.  The mc is a little annoying, but I feel like there’s growth.

At first I absolutely loved this but towards the end, it just got too messy and it was more about the workplace then the romance. Like I’m not even sure if I would call this a romance but it was very gay and I loved that part.
