Libro perfecto para salir de un bloqueo lector y pasar un buen rato. Fue casi como estar viendo una comedia romántica (de las buenas) al estilo "She's all that". Tiene clichés como el "plan perfecto para enamorar a alguien" pero se terminan enamorando entre ellas, o que son totalmente opuestas, pero están aplicados de una buena manera.
Punto a favor: Nunca villanizan a nadie, todos son humanos que la cagan y ya está (Natalie es medio mala, pero no llega a ser "villana", por así decirlo).
Recomendado queda.

Queer, funny, and emotional, this was a sweet read. I really loved the complex characters, they are all so fleshed out and not just one note. At first I was off put by Alex and her somewhat abrasive personality. But much like Molly, I soon realized how much more there was to her, and why she is the way she is. (And how incredibly sweet, and thoughtful she truly is!)
I am really glad this book didn't shy away from topics like alcoholism, race, and toxic relationships. I was kinda worried how these subjects would be handled, but it was all done incredibly well and realistically. There is no quick fix to getting sober, and there is no easy way to end a toxic relationship. It's important to have people in your life who can support you and point out their concerns and fears with your partner.
I also liked the inclusion and differences between Alex and Molly in regards to how they experience college based on their financial situation. It's not often I see the college experience show someone struggling to make ends meet, and the reality of what it is like to go through that.
A great queer romance, and one I definitely recommend! I can't wait to check out other books by these authors now.
