What a cute and enjoyable read!
As someone who works in sports I loved Russell's character and his interactions with "Weather girl." I found the setting of a newsroom really interesting & loved all the sports & weather puns. I really appreciated the Jewish representation in this book and although I can't speak to its accuracy it was a nice change of pace to read about it.
I also really enjoyed Russell being a plus-size character. We are starting to get much more body positivity and representation for plus-sized women in books and I the men deserve that as well. Russell was wholesome & I loved how unapologetic both Russell and Ari.
There were so many endearing parts of this book but also so many tough subjects to tackle which are my favorite rom coms because they are realistic. Probably one of my favorite romance books I've read this year!
