The banter and chemistry was great! I also loved the political background of both these characters. This version of the US is idealistic and nice to see. I liked the character depth and diversity too! Lots of lines made me laugh out loud too. I wish there weren’t so many sex scenes and swearing; the book would have been not quite as long lol. It just felt like the middle of the book was just them being thirsty. This book moved fast at the beginning, but around halfway through I didn’t know where the book was heading because of the pacing and the endless sex scenes. Overall, I really enjoyed this book though! A quintessential LGBTQIA+ romcom.

Let me tell you I didn't realize just how much this book was going to make me laugh and cry! I thought it was a great representation of someone who comes out and the difference between the level of support their family gives and how much it can really affect a person.
I was very glad for a happy ending, I don't know if my heart could have taken anything else!

I enjoyed this book but it didn't blow me away. There was a lot of sexual content, which isn't really my thing. I thought that the romance was very well written, not too rushed, and had a good amount of build up.

Ganska klassisk romcom, rolig.
Lite för lyckligt och orealistiskt slut för min del

This was a very sweet read. I loved the characters and the storyline. 

I just had an issue with how love the chapters were. They definitely could've been split up into much shorter chapters and it would've been so much easier to read. And another issue that is due to the long chapters was the timing of the book. This book spans over about a year. And there would be weeks passing in the middle of a chapter and sometimes it wasn't all that clear that it happened and it would pull me out of the story. It would've been so much easier had the a new chapter started when there was a jump in time.

Other than those two things, I thought this book was great and I'd absolutely recommend if you're looking for something sweet to read.
