I never expected to like this book. I bought it on a whim (girl math.) But it was really sweet and the atmosphere of Wimbledon/summer in London seems is really charming. 

The worst part about this book is that Kieran calls Flora "Flossie." I hate the nickname.
Their dynamic is otherwise really good and the bubble thing is very cute.

I understand why the 3rd act breakup happened but it did feel a little gimmicky.


I have never cared more about tennis as I did while reading this, unfortunately I do not have the time to get into more sports. 

If you read this make sure to have some strawberries on hand as you will crave them throughout reading this.

Favourite quote:
"Win or lose today, I'll be waiting for you after." "Then it sounds like I've already won."


Award in my reading journal:
Most surprising liked book
emotional funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted fast-paced

This was sweet and easy. It felt pretty fresh for all that it was a classic story. The Irish hero helps, and they both worked on being better people together. Lovely.
