I was looking to read an adorable YA book with love able characters and this book truly hit the spot. I feel in love with Rowan and Neil. The writing in this book was lighthearted but not in a way that made the plot or characters feel inferior. Even the supporting cast was entertaining. Half way into my reading I discovered there is a sequel and I am so excited to follow these characters.

unexpectedly a five star read.
I wish I annotated this book because there is so many good quotes, the things Neil said made me giggle so much and overall this book is just so good. please read this rn
fav quote - “…you are the best thing about this city. You are going to be the hardest to leave. I love you so much.”

The only reason I didn’t DNF this book was because I bought it and books are expensive so I have to finish them to feel like I didn’t completely waste my money. I could not stand Rowan throughout this book and the writing felt maybe a little too immature for me (even though I usually like YA romances). I also had tried to start this book 3 separate times and just could not get into it.

Aside from knowing that this book is academic rivals to lovers, I pretty much went into this book blind and I really recommend doing that. I loved every aspect of it. From the writing and assassin game plot, to the characters and the trope, this book served.
Rowan and Neil are absolutely everything. Just top-tier characters. I loveee their dynamic. and the LOVE CONFESSION?!? it took me by surprise.
