This is a sweet romantic comedy. I really liked the setting - Minnesota in the fall to winter gave me that Midwestern vibe that felt like home. I liked the subplot related to women's health issues (no spoilers). I thought the treatment of that was authentic and sensitive. The dynamic between the main characters was sweet. I'm not sure the overall plot relating to the death of the ex worked for me. I appreciated the token nod to LGBTQIA+ representation, though it was not at all central to the plot.
I would recommend this to readers of romantic comedy.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC!

This was fine. I thought the friends were kind of assholes for not being more supportive and Adam was very “this isn’t you” after knowing her for all of 4 weeks, calm down sir. But it was fine. 2.5 stars rounded up

literally the most boring book I have ever read and I’ve read most of Charles Dickens’ books. hated almost every minute of it and almost abandoned it when i was 87% done.
