OMG LITERALLY LOVED THIS SO MUCH I ALREADY MISS THEM T0T. I really enjoyed this book because of the characters and the character development and the plot, like everything. I really loved seeing Eliza and Caz's character dynamics and seeing them interact is literally SOO sweet!! I really liked seeing both of their weaknesses and seeing the other adapt and help them. I really liked seeing both of their families and their family dynamic and seeing Caz with Eliza's sister was sooooooo cute!! Man's good with kids :D. This book made me giggle, laugh out loud and cry my heart out. Amazing really. I really liked the Henry Li and Chanel cameos AHHHHH when I saw them I immediately freaked :P I would die for a part 2 but I doubt it's gonna happen :C Looking forward to reading more of her books!!

Well, well, well. I decided to continue my reading with This Time It's Real since I paused it last year and now I'm finally finished with it! I am proud of myself. The story itself are funny yet romantic. I love all the characters.

I love the idea that we have Eliza Lin; the imperfect indigenous main character. She's imperfect yes. But, somehow she gets back on her feet and finally can solve her own problems.

I love this story so much. I fall in love with the dynamics and banters between Eliza and Caz. Thank you for the heartfelt sweet story, Ann. I will continue with I Hope This Doesn't Find You next!

5⭐ worthy. Ciao!

I would have finished reading this in one day but I started it too late in the day 😞.
It was so so sweet and yet so emotional ❤️.
When she thought he died 😭😭😭, I was about to cry with her.

Beautiful ending.
My only problem is that it wasn't long enough 😂, other than that perfection.
