Overall, I really enjoyed this book. It was sort of slow/medium paced depending on what you look at. There was moments I would get frustrated with the characters, but I would also look at what was going on from their perspectives. This is my second Abby Jimenez book and I have to say it’s probably my favorite atm.

This book was incredibly touching. It has tropes that I typically don’t like, most notably the miscommunication trope, but I think it was well-done and I didn’t absolutely hate it. I loved the characters in this book. The FMC is strong, independent, and thoughtful (very relatable) and the MMC is introverted, kind, and adoring. I found myself feeling that the love story was somewhat relatable…there are so many nuggets of truth and wisdom buried in this book. The plot is silly — fake lovers — but it’s so cute you can’t help but smile. There are some heavy parts too that really felt sincere and made me cry. The spice level is low, but the storytelling makes up for it.

The two main characters' social anxiety and trust issues made the usual "misunderstanding" trope plausible and not silly.

5.0

Sou fã de romances, daqueles com muitos clichés, dos mais diversos tipos de tropes românticos, mas ainda assim, até 80% do livro, era um 4,5 estrelas. Achei que era muita discussão e desencontros que culminariam num final esperado e ponto. A escrita deste livro é mais refinada que o anterior, então achei que meia estrela mais era o justo. Porém, os 20% finais, incluindo a nota da autora, me fez entender porque as amigas gostaram tanto e exaltaram, panfletando incessantemente (amigas, nunca duvidei de vocês). Definitivamente a forma como a autora abordou tanto, foi de me deixar jogada. Apenas leiam (e vejam gatilhos no StoryGraph para assuntos sensíveis).
