Really cute sapphic book. Light on the angst and with a happy ending. The humor was good and I really enjoyed it. I definitely liked Sophia’s POV better, at first Emma kinda annoyed me but I loved her by the end of the book.
I’m not sure how I felt with the drama, the lack of communication just kinda bothered me. The friendships were okay at the beginning but then several characters just annoyed me. In the end everything worked out how I hoped so overall this book was a good lighthearted read.

it was an okay read. emma and sophia were a bit annoying the first few chapters but i still quite enjoyed the enemies to lovers trope.
i’m glad it was a quick read because even though i appreciated all the gay moments, the bisexual representation and had fun watching them create the films, i was very aware how young they alle are. i read quite a lot of YA literature but in this one the characters felt especially young and immature.
a cliché YA romance novel which was fun to read but i wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

I saw "sapphic enemies to lovers" and knew it was my calling to read it. I enjoyed how lighthearted this book was, it's a breathe of fresh air compared to the many heartbreaking LGBTQ+ stories we usually get. I liked the contrast between a character who was a diehard romantic and one which was repelled by it. I though that this was a decent trope to fuel the "enemies to lovers" aspect.
However, in this case I think the fluff was excessive.I wanted a little more depth in Emma and Sophia's relationship (a lot of the focus fell on the straight side couples) and while I am aware that this is a YA novel, I was expecting a little more maturity. Additionally, Emma's obsession with love was such a constant throughout the novel that it practically became her only personality trait. While I related more to Sophia's character they both came off as really self absorbed. Despite this, there were times when the characters acknowledged these flaws which I really appreciated.
Overall, I was slightly dissapointed by "I Think I love You" but inherently it wasn't a terrible read. It had its sweet moments and accomplished its intent for a cute wee romance.

This book is an absolutely adorable rom-com, and if you're wanting a queer-positive light hearted love story that's a quick read, you should definitely pick this up! I really liked both main characters, Emma and Sophia, and loved the way they interacted with each other and their friend groups. I liked the plot line with the film festival and how it ended up. I liked the realizations the characters come to and the development that happened!

I enjoyed this and thought it was a fun read. I did think the main characters were immature at first, but I hadn't read much about the book before I picked it up, so I didn't actually realize that it was a queer take on Much Ado until about a quarter into the book. I'm always a fan of Shakespearean retellings, especially when they're gay.
