To be honest it took me some time to get used to the way Leon's chapters were written, but after some time and understanding why it was written like that, I got used to it. 

I had no idea what deep subjects are in this book, but I was positively surprised. 

In the beginning I was kinda annoyed by Tiffy, but learning with her about her past and her changing makes you look on the beginning differently. 

Over all, while I am not a total fan of the writing in Leon's parts, I really enjoyed this book and finished it quickly, because you can hardly stop reading!

Definitely one of my 2023 highlights and one of my new favourite romances! Never did I think I would say this about a book where it takes the mc's SO long to actually meet but it worked so well and the post its oh god!! so in love. 

Tiffy is such a relatable character for me, especially when it comes to thinking about her size/body and I appreciated that much. 

The way Leon worries for Tiffy? Peak whump. So much suffering but also! so much love, so it was fine xoxo

This book had me laughing out loud while I was in bed sick and I could gush about it for forever but give it a chance! The writing style in Leon's chapters always made me DNF but it fits so well into the book and really just adds it's own magic, I promise!
