Nice fall read. I especially liked the unique plot.
There was some minor details that distracted from a strong plot for me. Being a millennial I would think I am part of the target audience however, it was just a little too much of young millennial/gen Z thrown into it. I found it be more annoyingly off putting of characters than helpful for the story. It sounds like “I’m not a regular mom, I’m a cool mom” was trying too hard to sound current and hip. Idk, maybe I am old and lame

Honestly, it took me a while to fully "get into" this book, but I ended up really enjoying it. I think the idea around the whole story is really cool and that it was executed well. It was cute throughout and I was cheering at the end.
this ripped my heart out and sewed it back together.

This book was dead on arrival for me. Couldn't help myself... It was 100% plot driven, by which I mean that everything any character did was simply to enhance the plot, and not because they were being rational humans or developed characters. A GIANT tragedy happens (for the majority of characters) early on in the book, yet they all seem fine, not grieving at all, and instead are focused on building up the confidence of the FMC... while she is more focused on how her ex from a year ago betrayed her and "love isn't real" than the giant tragedy that JUST occurred in her life.
Also, the timing of the first semi-steamy scene was incredibly icky. I was literally cringing and couldn't wait for it to be over. That probably wasn't helped by the fact that the main characters weren't developed into real humans, so I felt absolutely zero chemistry between them, and didn't care whether they got together or not.
Finished this book just so I could write this review. Yuck.
