The book heavily discusses the mental health of its main characters and while I agree this should be de-stigmatised I don’t think this was a good representation of mental health problems particularly OCD.toofondofbooks_'s review

There’s also just inconsistencies with the writing for him. He’s spent 6 years on this show but believes that the love on it is real (?) and is SHOCKED when people think differently. There’s an Indian queer romcom screenplay that is apparently incredibly meaningful to him, yet it’s barely mentioned nor does it actually go anywhere. It just felt like there were a lot of aspects to Dev that didn’t feel fleshed out, and that really bothered me.
I did however, find it cute and I love a nice queer romance. I like cheesiness and I do appreciate a happy ending. I might rate this lower later on but I don’t see myself giving this any less than a 3. For the most part I did like the book, but I wish white authors would put a little bit more thought into writing their POC.

Even the parts of romance novels I usually don't like (i.e., the part where they always leave each other over some stupid miscommunication) were better in this one than they usually. The problems seemed real and not forced, and the characters tried their best to say how they really felt, pretty much all the time. I loved this book and I love all the queer representation too. I relate to it in so many ways, and it made my heart ache.
