I would have liked this book a lot more if we hadn’t been constantly reminded every few minutes that Olive is smol girl and Adam is large man 🙄🥴 It felt like very lazy writing in an otherwise solid and fun romcom, but it was so off-putting that it really did impact my enjoyment of the book. The first time I heard it, it made me roll my eyes but it was fine. There was no need to repeat it even once after that let alone repeat it literally at least 9 times. Like please ☠️ Find another way to say he’s attractive to her or to describe their appearances.

Meh. There wasn't anything I really disliked about this book, but I just didn't feel anything for the main couple. The banter felt forced. I did like that the female main character was demisexual.

This is my second Ali Hazelwood book and I'm just as pleased with this read as I was with the first one. It was a beautifully put together story, and though I'm really not keen on the misunderstanding trope, this was nicely done altogether. 

I loved to see Olive fall in love with Adam, and how entirely patient Adam was for her, and how entirely sweet her friendship with Malcolm and Ahn was, and well, everything. 

It was a great story, in a great setting, and as far as romances go, supremely sweet. Highly recommended.
