Maybe it was because I knew as a reader that these two characters would end up together since this is a romance novel, but a lot of times I felt that Charlie and Dev's arguments kind of came out of nowhere, or happened very suddenly. I got a lot of whiplash in the second half because of that.
The first half and the ending though both really had me. It was tropey, their bonding was fun and cute, and seeing everything play out at the end was so great to watch. Especially given both of these characters are very open with the readers and with each other about their mental health, it was nice to see them get the happy ending they wanted.
Some quotes I liked:
"Isn't it wild that his true self is the version of Charlie Winshaw people liked the most?"
