I might (emphasis on might) have given this book a higher rating, but the author uses highly fatphobic language frequently throughout the book when describing characters (not as a theme of the book or from one character describing another).

I listed ‘sexual content’ as a minor content warning, but any sex-related scenes are fade-to-black.

The book has a lot of cute moments and is

a Happily Ever After

but doesn’t really earn it and is ultimately unsatisfying.

😍😍😍😍 This was TOO CUTE, y'all. Such a perfect sick day escapist romance, I cannot even. Nerdy off-beat heroine and cinnamon roll hero + blind dog in a hat + Alaskan setting + amazing side characters + moose friends + humorous writing + just enough spice? YES PLEASE. Docked a star for fatphobia and some problematic elements that I didn't think were dealt with appropriately. I will definitely be picking up more from Sarah Morgenthaler.
