The only thing that could tarnish the 5 star rating is the saccharine sweetness of each of the characters- it's near impossible. I'm told people this loving exist and maybe it's my own personal trauma the leads me to distrust that they might be grounded in reality.

I had multiple issues with this book. There were a lot of things that didn’t make sense, every character had the same personality, the infantilization of the autistic-coded character Henry, the domestication of Anastasia, etc. 

The couple had sweet moments, and I liked how head over heels Nathan was. The smut was okay

My favorite plotline was Aaron getting what he deserves. The ending was very abrupt

So very good! The third act conflict felt true to the characters and was well written, not just some random miscommunication like some romance books. I love the communally theme and the lack of damsel-in-distress storytelling. Only reason I didn’t finish it one day is because I have a toddler who wants to read his books. But it’s that good.

Omg I’m so glad ro be done this book. Its taken me forever to read because i just couldn't deal with the main characters. Anastasia was boring and Nate was too perfect and their conflicts weren’t necessary. Oh no, he loves you too much? Urgh
