The main character has anxiety and it was triggering my own anxiety so I stopped because I want reading to be a relaxing experience 😅

Such a diverse cast - I just wish it would also include (physically) disabled characters, because somehow that part of diversity is always forgotten. Anyway, a very wholesome story.

I picked this book at 6am on my way to jury duty Knowing I would be bored out of my mind sitting in the court house lobby. I was, which led to read 200 pages of this mediocre romance. I was kicking myself for not grabbing something higher on my tbr but I was in a hurry. Ultimately I don't regret reading it but the conflict at the end was so obvious and I'm not really sure how the protagonist walked into it. Nonetheless by the end I was enjoying the romp, probably would not read from this author again.

the plot contrivances felt unearned. and I couldn’t quite get myself to quite suspend disbelief. a lot of it hinges on the
miscommunication
trope, which I’m coming to realize I dislike. and although I did understand the affection between the two leads, the declaration of love occurs after knowing each other for
seven days and I’ve never really been a fan of instalove :(

in short, it had tropes I don’t like and I didn’t know that going in. not necessarily the book’s fault. for what its worth. I kept reading until the end. which is more than could be said about most other romance books I start and promptly don’t finish.

Kiss Her Once For Me is painfully messy and completely adorable.

Now I’m not normally a miscommunication hater, but it felt unnecessary and played up in this book, and that’s truly the thing that’s holding me back from giving this book a higher rating. One tiny little conversation should have been had way earlier in the book. I guess that’s just part of accepting the premise, but it was distracting. Otherwise, i loved this! The relationships formed, the found family, the Christmas, the second (third) chance romance, the fake dating, the queerness, the characters (all pretty unique and fleshed out) were all fantastic!
