I thoroughly enjoyed this (audio) book! First of all I was really lured in by the cover art, because the characters both look absolutely gorgeous, and Delilah was very quickly growing on me. Partially because she's a photographer and I can relate to that quite a bit. 

The story itself had me hooked almost instantly and it stayed that way. I really enjoyed the alternating POVs, which really made sense in this case and added a lot. All the characters have a distinct personality, no mary sues here!

There's some smut scenes that were incredibly good and I thoroughly enjoyed those too. The emotions came across so vividly, it was lovely <3 The narrator did a phenomenal job too!

First sapphic read and I'm here for it - queer girls for the win! I was a bit surprised to see how well balanced the spice and story was; the story was well thought out. Looking forward to continuing this series.

I enjoyed this way more than I thought I would. I have not read a good non-fantasy romance in a while. The only issues I had with this story is some parts were a tad cringey and some parts felt like it dragged/went into crazy detail but I feel like with the latter issue, it's only a problem for me because I'm use to romances that are written with less detail.
The story also made me feel a lot of anxiety and sadness which I did not expect. It's not a bad thing because the author does an AMAZING job conveying those emotions and getting you sucked into what the main characters are feeling. I also loved that while I was reading, I kept guessing and assuming the worst was going to happen because some of these characters have bad trauma and hurt people hurt people but it didn't happen. 
I love reading characters that communicate efficiently, set boundaries and showcase healthy and mature behavior. Claire and Delilah were so cute together, and such loveable characters with amazing character development. 
I also appreciated how there was no super uncomfortable scenes that focused on someone coming out/homophobia. There were so many queer people and no uncomfyness or anything that induced a *side eye*
I instantly started the next book after this.
