4/5 stars - This was adorable. Love how the what could be construed as corny/underdeveloped conversations about autism/self love/etc are actually insightful. This series is nothing but consistent!

I think this may be my favourite of the lot!! I loved Eve so much, and not just because we share a (fantastic mind you) name. She was just a bundle of joy and energy. Her dynamic with Jacob was to die for. I also really liked the way their relationship developed and the pace that was set, it was pretty much perfect. I must admit though, the rest of the Brown family really frustrated me in this one, they all seemed so unreasonable. I’m unsure if it was OOC or if I just didn’t like it, either way, I’m glad Eve gave them a firm talking to (they definitely deserved it).

My favourite book out of the trilogy. An easy read that will make you laugh and smile. The conversations about neurodivergence and autism are well done.

Very cute and adorable book! Eve’s character was the most relatable to me and I think Jacob’s grumpiness was quite delightful! The subtle discussion about being on the spectrum adds to the sense of inclusivity, which I think was well done and not dramatized. Overall, fun read!
