This was a cute KU rom-com about YouTube influencers. Character development was good, but I wish Tobin would have been less about his feelings. He got annoying by the end of the book. Overall, it was pretty good.

Absolutely adorable! This was a fantastic book! Highly recommended for those that like romcons. The story is catchy and grabbed my attention straight from the start!

This was an okay story, but ultimately I think pretty forgettable.

Strong 3.5 stars

Is there such a thing as too contemporary? I don't know but for me there was just something decidedly uncharming about reading a story between two influencers/youtube stars.

It was a good book, good read, and I liked the characters but it just didn't scratch my bookish itch, it felt almost like I was following a deep dive on youtuber/tiktok star tea with behind the scenes receipts. It didn't read that way, because the authors writing style is super smooth and lovely, but the story's content made it feel that way.

I connected to this book on a lot of levels.  I loved both characters and empathized with them, but more than anything I loved how they brought their unique brands together to collaborate and create something that both of their audiences could enjoy. Uniquely brilliant!

Lily and Tobin are both influencers on YouTube. While what they vlog about are completely different things, Tobin is more of a gamer and unique commentator on random events and Lily is into beauty and fashion, how in the world could these two worlds ever combine to form a partnership in a collaboration? Especially when they can hardly stand to be in the same room together for a few minutes. It's actually that premise that pulls their viewers in and makes the clicks and comments roll out. Fiery chemistry that began long ago when they used to banter back in high school. Would they kill each other or make out like mad?

The entire concept pulled me because honestly, I had to know that answer just like their viewers. I seriously wanted to know what these two were going to do to entertain two entirely different vlogging audiences and also if Lily and Tobin were going to take things further. There was no creativity left behind because what these two came up with was pure brilliance!! Every moment between Lily and Tobin was fantastic.

Not only were these two vloggers a unique collaboration, but it also ended up changing the trajectory of both of their lives. Is there love involved...it wouldn't be a romance if somebody didn't fall, right? But, more than that, these two completed the other more than they ever thought possible.

When they should have ended up killing each other, they end up...well not. It's sweet and funny and all things fun that I love in a great book. I'll definitely be picking up another Cathy Yardley book again.
