This book is going to be unreadable in like 10 years because all the jokes rely on very specific pop culture knowledge. I tapped out when one of the characters was flossing (the dance) in the elevator, which I think was right after a very cringe scene involving watching Hamilton.
Reread:
Favorite somewhat lighter topics Bergman brothers book. Tough to rank these now that I've started rereading. I like the ones I've rated 5 stars for such different reasons!
First Read: The sunshine Bergman's are officially my favorites.

The final installment of an epic series.
I honestly should get the whole thing in physical form. I am completely enamored with the whole family. Each story is great in its own way. They all bring something refreshing and charming to the table. No one comes empty-handed. I feel like we all can take away something from each book and apply it to our lives and how we see the world. This one was unbelievably cute. How incredibly grumpy Gavin is and how sweet and charming Oliver is, even when he is battling his own demons. They stole my heart. I love them and want them to be happy forever… even if they’re not real.

now why did chloe liese have to expand her horizons by writing this mlm-fetishizing, overly-woke, abolish-toxic-masculinity-101, i'm-a-man-with-sisters-so-i'm-a-decent-person-who-knows-shit-about-periods, cheesy ass, cringy ass romance? not that penning stories about lgbt+ characters with chronic pain and anxiety is what authors shouldn't be doing, but this was clearly written for fetshizers, by a fetishizer. oliver is insufferable and both characters' internal monologues made me want to cry. the sex was weird and clearly fed into cishet-womens' fantasies. i wanted to read this as someone with similar struggles to oliver, and who liked two books out of the series this book is in, but am feeling regret rn. can't say i enjoyed myself.
