i found the story cliche and predictable most of the time. i found myself rolling my eyes at some lines or whatever, but i also smiled and laughed at some scenes. it's also longer than it needs to be, but then again it's the first book in the series so i kinda understand. i didn't expect to like iris because she was mean at first, but then she became the funniest character. i'm actually excited for her book. i hope she never loses her charm.
i also loved the ending and how they all became friends, i think it was excecuted well. even better than delilah and claire's instant love story lol
i just think all of the characters would benefit in seeing a therapist. like that's all that i can think of while i was reading some parts. like babes im begging u pls see a therapist and get help with your issues!
i will read astrid's book and let's see what will happen next!

Here are some of my favourite moments...
Delilah & Claire first meeting
Claire calling Spencer out on his weird 'good girl' bullshit
When Delilah pushed Spencer into the lake after giving Claire her camera and pretending like it was an accident.
'To shitty men and the women who put them in their godamn place'
I just how this book show how quick queer women fall in love so quick like they have been together for what 10 days and they were both just so madly in love
‘A full, happy feeling filled Delilah’s chest as she looked at her friends, her partner, her home. She lifted her glass once more into the air, tipping it to each of them in turn. To us’- Chapter Thirty Three
