The book was to slow for me.

Predictable but cute. It was well suited for a teen audience but as an adult fell short.

This was just the cutest shit, man. It was fucking cute and it made me smile.
I'm a huge sucker for the cute, nice girl and bad boy with a secret heart of gold matchup so this basically had me from the word go because of that. On top of that, I thought the idea of being trapped in a library together was really fun and made for some really sweet, endearing moments.
The only reasons I didn't give this a 5 star rating was because it was too short, there should have been more time dedicated to the library, and I would have liked to see more time dedicated to Autumn's relationships with everyone, not only Dax but also her friends and her brother. It think it would have fleshed things out better and likely would have made me better understand the reason she didn't want to tell her friends about her anxiety disorder.
But with that said, this book isn't trying to be anything special and I don't want to give it too much flack for not being ambitious enough. It was just a little bit of cute fluff and there's absolutely nothing wrong with a little bit of cute fluff every once in a while.

Some parts of this book were really unrealistic but it was still so cute and the anxiety rep was great.

This was a really cute story! I listened to it on audiobook and it was a very easy story to follow.

This was a very fast and enjoyable read. It didn’t force me to think too much and just let me enjoy the romance without getting too into it. I recommend this book to anyone who just read a difficult or emotional novel. I enjoyed the aspect of anxiety being accurately represented. As s person with anxiety, it is hard for those who do not have it to understand, but this book did a good job of showing the reality of it. I also enjoyed how Autumn, the main character, really learned to cope with her anxiety, but did not completely get over it. Anxiety is not something that ever just goes away, there are good days and bad days, and I really appreciated this books showing of that.

Many things I love about this book. One being that Autumn is a very realistic and relatable character. Another being the forced proximity is just *chefs kiss*. Plus, the chemistry is amazing. So, if you haven’t read it, DO IT.
