I quite liked this book, and I have no idea what all of the internet hate is about, because all I've seen on social media is about how awful this book was. I think it's because it is very obvious that it used to be Reylo fanfic, and people just hate fanfic for some reason. 

Well, it was quite good, and fell into several tropes that I really like, including fake dating and real feels. It features demi-sexuality rep, Jewish rep, and Olive discovered a lot about herself and what she really wants in life as the story goes on. There were aspects I thought could be better, but it was fun. Olive was witty and incredibly genre-savvy, and while Adam was pretty one-dimensional, he does grow a fair amount as a character.

The book is cheesy, but in a fun, self-indulgent way. A fake dating book that likes to poke fun at the whole fake dating trope. Most of the book seemed pretty cliche YA, but it got a little spicy towards the end. I'd say this is a fun, light-hearted beach read.

I think the problem with this book is that it's not all its chalked up to be . Mentioning stem and the issues women face in stem once does not make it a feminist book. And i am not even gonna mention the boob thing . I think the story is compelling and okay but there's better gay fanfiction out there .

Why hasn't anyone told me that this would be my favorite book ever ???
Loved it , every chapter of it . 
Loved the characters, the story , it was a bit predictable but I didn't care , it delivered. 
It's the perfect rom-com , exactly what the author has probably intended it to be.
I'm ordering more from her 😅

Do purchase the one with the bonus chapter , it's worth it 😊
