I kept putting this book off for so long but once I started reading I didn’t want to put it down. This book was so much fun and I really enjoyed reading it. I loved seeing Molly grow more comfortable being herself and I also loved seeing Alex change and learn to let others in. I wish we got to see more of them together after the final chapter but overall this book was really sweet and I can’t wait to see what the author writes next!

WOW i really liked this!! i enjoyed the “she’s all the vibes” but without it being kinda toxic. i honestly really liked both mcs - and the narrators were PERFECT. i think the main things i didn’t like: 1) i wanted more 1-on-1 time with alex&molly and 2) that ending was SO abrupt. some of the fanart though?? AMAZING.

i liked this story. i think often with two mcs, one of them ends up being insufferable whilst the other one is amazing but that wasn’t the case here. i loved both molly and alex especially how they brought out the best in each other. and their moments were so damn cute. I really loved how Alex had to learn that what you see as ‘typical’ in relationships is often rooted in the relationships you saw modelled as a child. and her coming to terms with the fact that
Natalie did not love her and never would was very powerful. yay to knowing our worth



now,
molly’s mum being racist was…a choice. i understand that there are poc who were raised by yt people in white areas and went to pwi which caused them a lot of trauma. and i know that sometimes this can make people choose to ‘turn their back’ on their culture in order to try assimilate into yt society. but jesus christ her mum was such a prick. that scene with the Korean restaurant server was disgusting and then when molly confronted her she said “I’m sorry if my issues with being Asian have affected you.”respectfully, miss me with that BS. her mum will still hate being asian after the ending of the book which is :/ because HER KIDS ARE HALF ASIAN. what does it say about them and their identity if their mother is so set in her ways to hate all things asian? idk



and i wish there was just a little bit more depth to Molly and her struggles. 

JUST WANNA SAY WE WERE ROBBED BY THAT ENDING

This was a lovely read. A fun, queer "enemies"-to-friends-to-lovers journey ("enemies" in quotations because they don't like each other at first, but it isn't a deep hatred.. more of a lite version). I do wish we had more of "lovers" time, though!

A lot of sweetness, funny moments, banter, and I loved getting to know each character through the dual POV.

The beginning of this book made me really dislike the main characters, which kind of put me off the book, but the pay off was incredible.
