I loved the format of this book. It made me want listen to music more often while I read, and in my opinion the playlist associated with the book was awesome. I discovered some new artists and enjoyed listening to some favorite artists. It was also a cute love story with good pacing and fresh plot points. My main issue was the heteronormativity and the toxic gender roles that were perpetually present throughout reading. It was a big distraction for my while reading and took away from my enjoyment of the story. It was woven into the dialogue, the relationship tensions, and pretty much every aspect of the plot.

Why does Abby Jimenez have to do this to us? Every single book she writes is that perfect blend of humour and gut-wrenching sadness. I wasn't sure I could handle Sloan's story after The Friend Zone stole my heart, but this was perfect. I appreciate the overarching plots that the world will throw every obstacle in your path as a couple, but you can make it work even so. It's a new version of the romance genre to me, and I don't think I can read any other books like this, because it is so good. Abby Jimenez has ruined me for other books!
