Notes:
- Sweet romance with all my fav tropes :') Pure escapism, my beloved.
- Levi is a top tier book boyfriend: gentle with Cath, outgoing, enthusiastic, AND passionately supportive of Cath's love of books?! Insanely top tier.
- Writing was good (compared to a lot of other romances at the moment maybe..) and I liked the exploration of the characters' aspects/struggles outside of the relationship. Cath's family situation, her social anxiety, fandoms, etc.
- Simon and Baz origin story!! I love them :')

just finished up my freshman year at UNL and thought i would reread this. rainbow is my op but this book is so cute & i love being able to understand the locations (and the fact that half the characters are named after buildings at UNL for some reason?)

Read it with book club and it was such a fun book. I like that Levie was not written as super good looking but he was the main love interest
I like that the sisters are so different from each other but they still find each other in the end!

Another comfort reread. Honestly, I was just too devastated after the atrocity that is the love story in Daughter of the Moon Goddess that I just needed some concrete, unfailing love that is contemporary romance novels.

Cute, but there’s some janky writing at the sentence level, and it could’ve been 50-100 pages shorter. If I had a bookish teenage cousin, I would not hesitate to recommend this to her.

This one is for the ones waiting to live but terrified to do so (hi that’s me).
Cath, the main character, just felt like my hype girl all along. I felt reflected in her, in how lost she seemed , and in how scared she was about the idea of leaving what she loves so earnestly.
This book ended up meaning a lot to me. It is so hopeful and even thought it’s adorable, in some way, it’s realistic. I really want to be like Cath.
Thank you, Cath, for existing and showing me that there’s a way out.

Es un buen libro para una lectura tranquila. Siento que la protagonista no tiene mucho desarrollo y el drama que llega a ocurrir siempre se resuelve de forma rápida y no muy dramática, pero te deja con un buen sabor de boca.
