toxic relationship is not between the two main characters, nor the sexism or misogyny

I have never thought of myself as romance girly, it has never been a genre I have ever really reached for but maybe this book is proving me wrong because I loved reading this book, I had such a fun time with it. I just loved the characters however I did keep thinking who was this many pre-wedding dates/events because girl what was the reason but that me just over thinking, a really small part of the book. It was just such a fun read like I don't really have a lot to say expect that I just had such a fun time with this book like there were actually a number of times that I laughed out loud and I didn't really want to read this book when I picked it up but I thought I am going to need to read at some point so why not now. I think a reason that this book was just so fun was that no only did I like the two main character as couple but I loved them as individual characters aswell. I do have one issue with this book and that some of the writing and words used screamed millennial like 'shit boot' like every time I read that, I cringed but I guess millennials are this age group, so that maybe have they talk but I don't know and I don't care because I didn't like it. I thought the whole sub-plot about how family is complicated and how they are not all prefect was really well done and doesn't seem to tell you or you should feel sorry for, you get to make your own decision which I liked. This book was just so funny, fun to read, wholesome and just really fluffy and truly had such a good time with this book and the ending just made me so happy, like I had like a warm and fluffy feelings and if you just want a fun, quick read that a whole lot of fun this book is prefect.

Here are some of my favourite moments...
Delilah & Claire first meeting
Claire calling Spencer out on his weird 'good girl' bullshit
When Delilah pushed Spencer into the lake after giving Claire her camera and pretending like it was an accident.
'To shitty men and the women who put them in their godamn place'
I just how this book show how quick queer women fall in love so quick like they have been together for what 10 days and they were both just so madly in love

‘A full, happy feeling filled Delilah’s chest as she looked at her friends, her partner, her home. She lifted her glass once more into the air, tipping it to each of them in turn. To us’- Chapter Thirty Three
