I LOVED this. I have been trying to get it from the library for a while but the hold kept coming in at an inconvenient time and then I'd have to wait weeks again. Ended up getting a physical copy from the library at the right time and wow. I sped through it. It's a mostly light read, but there are some aspects of trauma that I feel were well addressed. I think Tiffy is absolutely hilarious and wonderful, and Leon is quiet but sweet - they're a perfect match in the most adorable way. It was a slow, sweet build to their romance that made me appreciate it all the more.

Stayed up until 2am to finish this masterpiece. I can’t stop smiling!!!

Funnily enough, I bought this book MONTHS ago and kept putting it off.  It is a rare occurrence for me to read romantic stories nowadays. I also could not for the life of me get through the first two pages. It took me a moment to get used to the writing style (also my edition had smaller font which) but I am so happy I finally read this.

The beginning is definitely slow, and Leon’s chapters are VERY hard to read without being a little bored but it picks up fast. And totally makes sense for his character as you get to know him more.

I loved the pacing. A nice slow burrrrn. I may add more to this but time to sleep!!!
