I quite enjoyed Icebreaker, but the fact I had to skim between page 350 and 380 really wasn’t fun. I enjoyed the downfall of the c**t, and the epilogue was very cute.

This book has good smut, an awesome group of friends, feels realistic when it comes to their shenanigans, funny at times and has some representation, which is important and welcomed. I was willing to bump up the rating up to a three since despite the way the book dragged on and on, as it was still well written and fun, but I hated how

she went back to accept Aaron as her work partner and even go therapy with him, setting herself back to that toxic environment, when it was clear that he wouldn't and didn't want to change either. He went to the point of triggering an ED on her and that shouldn't be taken lightly. She clearly had self-esteem issues and that rascisistic pos wouldn't help her recover the more therapy she did.

So this did turn me off and from there I basically just skimmed through to see how it would end, because I got bored and didn't want to have to read about her dealing with Aaron anymore.

This book was amazing - Hannah Grace is a great writer! :) It's got to be one of the best romances I've read, it was such a page-turner and I read it very quickly considering I'm a very slow reader! The characters were very lovable and relatable, as it is written from a duel perspective (probably the only ever duel-perspective I've read where I'm more excited to read the guy's perspective too!!). I also think it's very important for the lines of consent to be clear, and lines were never blurred in this book - definitely for a mature audience too! I also loved the fact that there was always great communication between them throughout and the constant reminder that therapy and expressing feelings is never something to be ashamed of.

One thing to be aware of before reading this is it does frequently talk about calorie counting and under eating, this didn't bother me, but it may be a theme that others find uncomfortable.

Overall, an amazing book!

Okay so I liked quite a lot about this book, especially all about friendship and platonic love, but damn it was so toxic sometimes? I get that toxic relationships shouldn‘t be overlooked in all our smut-loving delight but phew, you can‘t fix it all with some half-hearted therapy scenes and lots of sex.
