Reviews with content warning for Sexual assault - Vermelho, Branco e Sangue Azul

I enjoyed this book. the premise was really interesting. I wasn’t a huge fan of the writing style and would have probably preferred to have the book split perspective between Alex and Henry. I also didn’t like how the scenes would change drastically from paragraph to paragraph, it should have been split in to more chapters really.

Some things felt like we didn’t get a resolution to: June and Pez, June and Nora? It just felt like we had been given all the building blocks and didn’t even get the hint of an answer about any of them. the spice was great but it felt a little glossed over. Don’t get me wrong I don’t think all romance books have to have graphic details of sex in them but the way the writer wrote so graphically about everything leading up to the literal sex acts was the same as any good spice writer, but then it would gloss over the acts and describe the in-betweens and afters, I don’t know if it’s just me but maybe it’s because it’s a female author, writing about gay sex?

Very enjoyable overall but some of the politics went over my head and it just didn’t quite live up to the hype it had been built up to on social media.

I'm just so happy right now and I'm so so so glad that I chose to read this book!! I don't regret reading it in one sitting, best desicion ever <3

I feel so seriously happy that I'm just smiling while looking at my ceiling.😌
I really liked the enemies-to-lovers. Alex and Henry are such an interesting couple - they won my heart and it's just such a lovely book 🥰 The emails between them - mwah - loved it!
Overall, I felt really giddy with happiness after finishing reading and this book left me with many cute memories.

I've yet to watch the movie that came out and I'm pretty tempted.

i haven't been this invested in political drama in years. hopelessly funny and inspiring, yet realistic. i'm particularly pleased that it remained in one consistent POV for the entire book. alex and henry were endearing beyond belief, and i think i'll be thinking of these two for a while.
