toxic relationship is not between the two main characters, nor the sexism or misogyny

I had already read books 2 & 3 in the series, and honestly I'm glad I read them in the order that I did. For the first 3/4 of this book, I found all the characters just a little too unlikeable. It does give the entire trilogy's story arch a stronger meaning knowing this is how the 4 of them started out, but I can't help but think had I read this one first I would have been put off by the Delilah's acidity, Astrid's coolness, and Iris' outlandishness.

And I loved, when I got to the end of this book, bringing up in my mind's eye the last scene of book 3. All together, this trilogy is absolutely incredible and I wouldn't be exaggerating to say that Ashley Blake Herring has made a romance reader out of someone who frequently turned their nose up at the genre.

it’s a sweet and pretty fluffy sapphic romance! i’m not a fan of the miscommunication trope though and this had it in spades with multiple relationships.

i wish we got to explore delilah and astrid’s relationship more and how that grows, but that’s probably what the other books in the series are for. i do really like the banter from the characters though and the chemistry was good! the first half was addicting and the second half dragged a bit.
